Sorry guys, he was the first one to welcome me and help me out. He gave me a motor for like 50 dollars, and brought it to me. Shore going to miss that guy.Comment

O.O Oh God. Um, yeah... On my way back from Raliegh a few weeks ago, I calculated that I got 36.7mpg on a carby 5-speed at an average speed of 67mph.In love with a MadScientist!:thumbright:
There's a fine line between breathtaking ingenuity and "That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen!"

I've known a few carby 5 speeds to regularly get 48-49.youtube.com/neanderpaul 88 festiva LX w/BP G25 MR 5 speed waiting for wiring- 93 Festiva GL auto w/ air, waiting for B6t/G4A-HL - 98 Nissan Quest - 02 Mazda protege 5 wife's DDComment

Looks like I averaged 47ish during my time driving it. Best is 52.9 though. Highway trip with two bikes hanging off the back and a bunch of camping stuff inside.
Just keep the rpms as low as possible. Do the speed limit. An auto might be better suited to cruising around town at 35 or so than 65 on the freeway.
Could always try an aspire auto swap. Those had lockup torque converters, probably good for a few hwy mpg.91GL BP/F3A with boost
