i was getting 700 out of a tank to and from the snow..

so it doesnt sound like its going to help me all that much, whats needed is less fuel everywhere else on the map..

400-500km around town, i do drive rather quickly tho. tho its yet to bother me really

Similar to what I was getting Andrew... except a bit better around town.

Will let you know what I get to the tank on next fill and post it in the appropriate section... but 135kms for around 1/8 (max) of a tank?

With more power comes bigger fuel bills. If you want to reduce your usage, train the right foot not to listen to your brain. :bunny:

You can run lean at cruise to some extent but at full throttle you require either extra unburnt fuel, water injection or ethanol in your tank to control the piston temperature, unless you like rebuilding engines like I do.

Mmmm stripped 3.5 block would be nice. :(

Fanboy.

Maybe you should give your wife the Stag and just get around in your little Fiat :P

hahah thats exactly what happens, except she has a mercedes pick her up and take her to work (public bus)

No, I have a similar throttle controller and they do bugger all, only changes the throttle pedal resistance from linear to exponential.

yup they are useless, they only affect throttle input from the pedal, not the actual throttle opening in the throttle body

nope thats a dealer fitted one. not the same as the factory fitted item. so the info above is useless to you.

would LOVE to have a fiddle with that one though.

Depending on what time your available tomorrow, I may still be able to make it up?

Would be good to discuss options for DVD + HD TV Tuner in my Stagea too. Do you still have the double din facia for the 07 Honda Jazz?

Cheers

Cameron

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
