Tinfoil will solve that problem. Just search "tinfoil" and read up.

I am 3 miles from the city and not alot of mice but as you can see you only need 1.
I changed the plugs and filter today and it runs better but I will see how many miles I get on this tank of gas.
I was getting 45mpg in town and 40 on the highway .
I also run 45 psi in the tires.Comment

By running a higher air pressure you may cut down on rolling resistance but youre also causing uneven tire wear. Another thing is with a smaller patch of tire contacting the road, braking could be affected.Search Master - Honorary Member of Midwest Festiva Inc., Gulf Coast Chapter

Now you just need to find out where the mouse was getting all that stuff from. Your seats? Under the dash? Hope he didnt chew any wires.Comment
