Lightbulb Who's tracking MPG on Fuelly.com ?
OK - I know this is one of those cars that's never going to pull down 30+mpg, it's about the 'smiles per gallon' cars, but I've been tracking my vehicles for a while now using Fuelly.com

any other members tracking?



monitoring MPG is just as important as monitoring boost, IATs, etc... it can point to something failing (or just having too much fun!)

it's not so much the gas mileage, as I know it will not be fantastic - but if I start pulling in 9mpg regularly, probably have an O2 sensor going, etc..

If I would have had my Kiwi last month I would have known my IATs were up from a failing pump, not everything fails in black and white

LOL - I'm a little 'older' than that

But that's about what I get on a tank most weeks - but the highway weeks are much better!

I believe it was just two - we swapped the factory springs for the ones on the new pulley - haven't had any movement - loving it!

what do you mean the springs? so if you transfer everything from the old one to the new pulley everything will be tight?

yes transfer the straps/springs from the old to the new pulley - you have to drill out the rivets and replace with new ones - of course keep the new bushing

no chirp!

I didn't it was PACougar and the tech (Dave) who figured it out

I just got the benefit of their trial/error... it's been rock solid.
