3.11.2018 2PM . 1982 Mercedes 240D Slushbox, no additives used, some AC .
Low fuel lamp on @ 453 miles, filled up @ 455, 27.4 MPG .
This is the highest I've gotten since rebuilding the engine .
In the 2,000 + miles it has used just under 2 quarts of oil and no ATF, I am well pleased .
The day was cool, 77* F is the maximum I've hit to - day .
@ 60 ~ 65 MPH the engine just _hums_, silky smooth like I think it should be .
I adjusted the hot idle up a little bit, can't find my infrared tachometer, when I do I'll set it to 750 RPM's and hopefully it'll smooth right out @ hot idle .
Still a tiny weeping of fuel at the #4 cylinder delivery valve on the I.P., Carlos asked me to let him re seal it to insure no worries with the warranty on the freshly overhauled I.P. ~ sounds right to me 
.
.Lots and lots of Farms and fields being prepared for Farming, a good thing I think .
I arrived in Brawley, Ca. @ 1:30PM and filled my tank, local Diesel is $3.50 ~ $3.79, a the place I filled up at said $3.49 on the sign but charged me .10 cents more, no worries .
Nice quiet town here, friendly people, I met several fellow travelers and local retirees within minutes .
To - morrow Death Valley awaits !
