I doubt it. As long as they're firing you're pretty good.

back on track

I got 58.9 mpg for a 125 trip yesterday, with negligible wind, my best for that route by 3.0 mpg. The car is accelerating well now, right on 90 MAP every time, and appears to be coasting better than usual as well. I'm not sure if my adjustment of the plugs played a part in this, if the cause was not using the e-brake as much, or if it was something else. In any case, the car is much more consistent now, the work done on my car is apparently fine, with the exception of the leak, and that will be remedied soon.

So, your EX gets better mileage than my HX. I just got 45.5 with one trip up to Mother's house. This tank should be better, since I drove 165 miles downhill and have my aluminum wheel covers for the entire tank, but aluminum weighs more than coroplast, so that must be it.

Actually, I hardly do EOC, there were a few places where I could coast without gaining too much speed. Usually I downshift.

Where is your antenna located? Mine is in my A pillar and I tuck it all of the way in.

I don't use EOC, because the only time I tried it, my mileage was worse.

The antenna is inside the A pillar. I shoved it inside, and covered the hole.
