Re: Solo to Monument Valley
You'd pay a lot too with gas at nearly 4 bucks per gal and getting not quite 11 mpg. That's like 40¢ per mile just for gas!!

Re: Solo to Monument Valley
That's all?? You have a leak or something else wrong. The pickup has a 59AB. It gets 18-19. The Courier is a 215 six with 2 carbs and it gets 17 - 19. Maybe you need to fly Ol' Ron out and have him tune it for you. He would earn his keep in the improved mileage alone.

Re: Solo to Monument Valley
Thanks for these terrific views. Really felt like I was "riding along" on the 10% grade shot through the windshield. Great eye for photography and great car!

Re: Solo to Monument Valley
I did find something tonight that I think could have affected my gas mileage on my trip. For some time, even on my trip, my engine has run rough until warmed up. Well, tonight I was cleaning the engine and noticed that one of the sparkplugs was loose! Took at least a turn or two to get it tight. I think that certainly could have made a difference. We'll see on the next trip.
