        Gorgeous range! I almost worship these things!

        Guy who owns a bike shop near me has 2 classics rotting away in front of his store, been killing me for years to see them like that...

          Just did a 120 mile round trip about 50/50 highway/city.

          I filled up the Range right on the empty line/fuel light and got around 6.5 gallons. When I got back home im hovering just above the empty line so I think I have about a gallon left from what I filled.

          That would put me at 21.8mpg..... Wat. I was feather footing the pedal cruising the speed limit the entire time. I don't think I've ever broke 20mpg with the p38 even on a drive from SoCal to San Fran best I got was 18 mostly highway.

            12.2 with 33" tires and what not.

            Was 14 before the tires.

            Haven't been driving it lately. Cyl 7 miss keeps recurring. I swapped plug 6 and 7....7 was really fouled out. Ran it, it was fine. Scanned and nothing. A week or so later.....cyl 7 miss and random cyl misfire codes. I think the coil pack is going.

            Also I removed my rear bumper and made the reverse lamps into the turns. Reverse lights will be aftermarket LED lamps mounted on the rain gutter at the back....once I get this damn misfire BS fixed.

            It's still leaking oil from the pump/timing cover too.....but I've been keeping an eye on it. As long as its local driving I'm fine. Interstate/high revvs and it really fucking pukes out.

            As for the 109, I've decided it's getting an M30B35. Began disassembling the RRC so I can have the frame. Man this is a ridiculous project.

                        Please don't do this to me. I don't want you to be lost.

                          Don't worry. I don't have any money anyways.

                          Need to get something finished and unload it.

                            So, suspecting a dying coil pack, I removed the coil packs.....

                            ....which means removing the intake mani.....what a terrible design.

                            Anywho....testing the coils they are fine. Fuck me I shouldn't have jumped to that conclusion.

                            Ordered a set of wires.

                                Anyone have a cheap 4.6 I can rob a rotating assy from?
