140 miles into the mission profile.
All systems nominal.
After driving the BP the last 10 months the B3 (with 4 new tires is so much quieter!
Still need to get the O2 sensor, down pipe, and manifold replaced.
Stats on first tank should be interesting.Last edited by Pu241; 11-26-2012, 05:22 PM.'93 Blue 5spd 230K(down for clutch and overall maintanence)

1105 hrs
First refuel at 388.7 miles
Took on board 10.188 gallons
Average speed was 59.1 MPH.
Giving MPG of 38.1, not good but have been mountains most of the tank.
Had assumed Check Engine Light was O2 related.
Will. Have to see data from second tank.'93 Blue 5spd 230K(down for clutch and overall maintanence)

Yeah, I was driving it when the wheel came off! What an experience. Apparently they reused a crush nut instead of putting a new one on after taking wheel off to inspect brakes and the crush nut failed. All is okay now, though.Pat

Wait, they actually remove the drum to inspect the brake shoes? I would kill someone for touching my car like that! If the rear brake holds for the Ebrake, then the shoes are good enough.Contact me for information about Festiva Madness!
