GREETINGS FROM LEBEC , Ca. !
A fair good bit of Startron in the tank last fillup , it's been smoking ever more heavily when taking off from a dead stop and also has a *slight* miss @ idle so I'm betting one injector is drroling from a tiny speck of crud in it .
Since it was showing almost 1/4 tank I decided to run it out of fuel again , the freeway had some problem and so was backed up to a standstill so i drove up the Angeles Crest Highway , a nice twisty road with lots of high speed sharp corners to slosh the last remaining bit of fuel around and hopefully suck any crud into the intake screen .
I made it to Lebec , did 110 MPH quite a few times when the road was straight and clear of traffic and a good view ,
Pulled up to the pump @ 501 miles .
24 MPG's this tank , not very good but drooling injector and lots and lots of 100 MPH driving trying to clean the damn I.P. out .
There was very little crud in the clear plastic intake screen , I added about 6 Oz. of Startron and filled it to the tippy top , stopped and had lunch/dinner , spied a $tarbuck$ and decided to go OnLine for a bit .
-Nate
