I get terrible miles per gallon but I get lots of smiles per gallon...

Set my float up higher in my Mighty Monojet, and lost .83 mile per gallon. Gained a bit of advance, and a bit more pedal response, so I can live with it. Stumble is gone now, too.

Behold, 250 cubes of fury!

Filled up today and calculated. For a mix of highway and city driving I got 20 1/2 mpg. Not too bad for a 30 year old brick. I need to hook up a temporary tach so I will know how many rpm it is running at highway speed. Around 1800 is where they make their peak torque and I am running 3.08 gears. Might need to re-gear once I found that out. I have new injectors on the list of things that it is getting. I am sure that can't hurt anything.

Wow! That is impressive.

Driving like I had a load of nitroglycerine bottles on board, I got 16 mpg yesterday on a 80% highway miles run to Greenbelt MD after I switched from heavy 33x12.5 15 tires to 235/75 r15 Goodyear Wrangler AT's inflated to max pressure (and then maybe a few PSI on top of that.)

Does anyone know the impact of fuel temperature on mileage? My fuel line passes perilously close (1/2 inch max) to the right header on its way to the fuel pump. (It actually touched the header when I bought the truck, which may have explained a lot about the way it ran for the PO).

I felt the rubber fuel line from the fuel pump to the carb yesterday, and it was VERY warm. Would my fuel mileage go up if I rerouted the line away from the header and used insulated line from the pump to the carb?
