10.8 mpg after a 30 mile round trip. I might be off a bit because I'm using a wooden dowel dipstick and a ruler instead of the gas gauge.
So in the AM I will put the old metering rods back in and see what the deal is.
I just feel like at 18mpg it's lean as in no balls engine wise. Better today for sure.

Oh on another note I went to the Waco So-Cal store show where they had a car show. They had six plaques for awards. I received Best of Show Truck and Fan Favorite.
