    I hope your next fill is not 30mpg, lol......This happened to me once (not in my Festiva), where I got AMAZING mpg, then realized on the next fill that the last fill wasnt "full", lol......

    Another blue car day... Unstuck the secondary, again. Adjusted valve lash, fixed the parking brake, drove it around, hit up the car wash, painted the wheels black, cleaned up the best center caps and trim rings, threw them set on, and cleaned my tools out of the back. Whew, now it's wife ready.

    putting bumbers on the bpt car. Def. better then the dented up one that was on there...back went on fine but I don't see how the front bumper will ever fit due to the intercooler piping with where the radiator is.

    Installed 2001 Kia Rio struts and springs with about 2 coils cut out. Car is transformed, not scary and squirrelly above 65 mph like the worn out Festy struts and springs. So far one of the best mods ever, love the ball bearing top mounts, steering is like butter.

    No AC on my car. So they are pretty useless as vents go. Summer time the windows are open. and I'm winter heats on the floor as we all know.

    Mel would kill me if I deleted the center vents lol. She's already been getting onto me that there isn't enough air coming through them on Green Car. Just out of curiosity, whats the reason behind not wanting center vents? I find they help out a good bit with bringing fresh air (and AC if you have it) through the vehicle? Is it a "racecar" thing? Like on CL when someone lists a car for sale and says "NO AC or seats or dash because, RACECAR".

    I was thinking that the entire center bezel had been wrapped to cover the vents, instead of plates being added in their place.

    cleaned up the fuse block and tinned the connections with solder and added actual fuses instead of the fusable links.

    Filled her up with premium and added a bottle of seafoam for treating me good
