    Did some odds & ends to it last night. Decided to go with TR55 NGK V-power plugs and changed the oil over to Mobil 1 with a Mobil 1 filter. It seems like it snapped it back to life.

    I've got a meeting this morning about 100 miles away, so I can't wait to get it out on the road to see how much difference it made.

    I've got to do the trans service. Trying to decide whether to go with ZZP Dex6 and their filter. Waiting for them to answer some questions.

    Yeah I averaged 27 mpg to Bangor and back to the office in Fairfield; probably 150 miles. And I stood on it a few times, just cuz I could.

    I've got to get some plug wires, too. Damn list is growing. They were the original plugs & wires. I tore one on the backside. Man, those were tough to get off after 10 years. I had a 7mm wire kicking around, thankfully.
