I have dealt with some old Detroit Diesels back in the day! A little leak here, a little leak there. The 6v92 we had in the MCI Coach, yep - always had a few gallons of extra oil on long trips.

Today I drove down to the BMV here in Milford and officially titled and registered the car in Ohio. I also drove it to the gas station for the first official fillup in quite some time. Finally, we tested the overdrive - and the rpm's went down considerably. Once I get it lined up I will be eager to find out what we experience on the interstate.

That will have to wait until July most probably, the Hot Rod Reverend will be at several churches in VA, CA, and FL of all places during the month of June.
