Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Gas mileage

[<twa1950@xxxxxxxxx>]

I know you are right Doc. I used to run regular in it all the time. I tried a couple of tanks of high price gas because I think somewhere on here suggested it. I know it is in my head but it does seem to run better off of it. The cars whole problem is it is just isn't driven enough. I have put a whole 500 miles on it since April the 1st. I put that many on my daily driver in a week believe me all the rest of my cars get the cheap stuff.

Terry you put premium in a low compression low or no lead 6 cyl. engine?
I put the cheapest regular I can find, the timing and the carb is
adjusted for it. The car can spin the E-60-14's ( Old school tire no#'s
metric makes my head hurt :-) ) I drive the car every day, 5-6 days a
week and I mean hard and it cost me barely 20$ for 2 weeks. My gas gauge
still doesn't work. Tune the engine for the regular it was designed for
and save quite a few bucks. Just my 2 cents.

Subject: [BaadAssGremlins] Gas millage

I got a pleasant surprise today. I have been keeping the Gremlin above a 1/2 tank and it still has been costing my over $30 a tank using premium. I didn't think I was getting 12 or 13 mpg in it. I decided to write the millage down last time an see for sure. I filled it up today and I got 25 mpg. Of course I am going to check it again.. While the $30+ for a 1/2 tank of gas is still ridiculous the 25MPG made me feel pretty good,
