Re: MPG and Manifold Vacuum
I just got the 63 back on the road. Have not had a chance to play with timing or check vacuum readings.
Since the T5 is in the truck, I plan to run the following test.
1.) I’ll drive a distance of XXX miles in 4th gear (which is 1:1 and the same as 3rd gear when it had the factory tranny).
2.) I’ll repeat that exact drive using my OD gear when appropriate (mine us 0.76) and compare MPG.
If I get really ambitious, I’ll play with the timing curve to see if MPG improves. It all takes time, so be patient.
