Think that is good, the next generation is a huge leap. The Skyactiv really works, a zippy engine too. I have 4 years of great driving experience. Going to get one of these in 2020. MAZDA: NEXT-GENERATION TECHNOLOGY

Just put patent pending on your product. I hate to update you about modern direct injection fuel technology, and controls, on 13:1 compression 2L. My off the shelf Mazda3, with Skyactiv engine gets 36+ miles per gallon on 87 gas, driven hard, and meets ULEV specs.

A patent does not make you money, it makes the design public. If someone uses the patent to make the device, you are the one that finds them, takes them to court, and proves they infringed. Big pockets needed for that....

Wide tires may cut into mpg. Back in the early 70's, my 66 plain Jane Dodge Coronet w/3 on the tree /6, consistently got 25 mpg on highway. Drove it hard and fast too. With today's gas subtract 10% from that. I get low 20's on 66 273 Barracuda with today's gas.

When you get my age, you might find that polyurethane turns to dust. I have a few examples.

Del, You need to save that thing. Add an aluminum slant 6, EFI, might get 40+ mpg. Beware, I think I see poison ivy.

I doubt Bob drives much with a passenger. The weight distribution changed enough, what was possible with driver only, was not possible with Jay.

My daily driver is a brand x. It gets an easy 35 mpg in town and 42+ on the road. It has a 14:1 compression ratio, yet has great manners. It is direct injected, dual variable valve technology, 4-1 exhaust, and 6 speed. I save my Barracuda for shows and cruise night.

Save the A, by a Mazda3. The 155 HP engine gets 40mpg. The engine and 6 speed auto transmission has been engineered to be efficient. High compression, dual variable valve timing, direct injection, and tuned exhaust.

One possible problem is sealing the pores in the carb casting. When the carb was first manufactured, the casting underwent an impregnation process using a special sealant and vacuum process. The proces filled microscopic voids in the metal. With age, repeated cleanings, and the corrosive...

Read the engine codes via MIL light. Usually done by on and off of the ignition, then 3rd time leave on and count blinks. Count blinks, separated by longer pauses. Not sure about 93, seek info in user manual. Codes can often be found online, and are fairly standard for Mopar.

In grade school a boys dad was a test driver. I remember my dad pulling along side it at a stop light so we could get a good look. I saw it a few times. I also remember Danny talking about going to Indy 500, and seemed to have a great interest in cars. They moved away, I lost a friend. Jays...

I static time engines, and find being with a couple degrees or better is typical. There are a couple tricks involved. When setting carefully turn crank to desired position, do not reverse, or there will be a bit of slop exposed from chain or timing gears. The other is to check rotor is return...

I am wondering how you know the miss is on #1? If timing light blinks are not consistent, then it is ignition. Otherwise it is likely the injector. I seem to remember the injectors are hard to get to because the intake runners cover them. It may necessary to pull the manifold.

The 3.0L has a crab cap! The inner rotor terminals are rerouted in the cap and appear at different external plug wire terminals. Caps fail, and plug wires can easily be at wrong locations unless you follow manual. The distributor uses a fine pitch optical encoder, dirt or age may lead to...

Porsche too.

I owned a 57 Studebaker Transtar truck with 289 for 32 years. Great truck. Excellent power, economy and reliability.

I think you need to first crop the picture, then resize. Windows often has microsoft office picture manager. There may also be tools that came with scanner or cameras.

Forgiving an error is easy. Forgiving a malicious bully is hard. I worked for a boss that was corrupt and lacked ethics. I took the easy way out, and left for better out of state position, never to see him again. It was hard for me to forgive myself by not taking action sooner.

Sorry for your loss. There are arc fault circuit breakers that work for what happened. They detect sparks as well as current overload. I am posting because few may know they exist.

Have you tried it in a chain saw or other 2-cycle?

http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=170453 I wrote about my install, now I see there are a few others. I am not too satisfied. My miles have been limited. Worried about going too far from home. The insides and electrical parts scare me. Have a miss only when warm, and...

Just measure terminal to terminal and figure out the bad cable or connection. Battery terminal to starter terminal. And alternator terminal to bulk head ... and bulkhead to starter, with fusible link and other connections to battery.

If the battery measures 12.3V with the car off, that is good. It should read close to the alternator voltage when running. If not then the problem is in the alternator or battery cable, or connections. It is possible to use the meter to find the problem. If you measure voltage drop more than...

That is sad. I have had the same happen too. I have even asked about rust. Some just do not know what they have, stupid seems to fit.

Try sign language. Come is "reach your arm out fingers up palm towards you, pull in , fingers down then pat your knee once". Sit is "down motion with flat hand, palm down". Try being silent. Be calm. Think clearly what you want your dog to do. Expect him to do what you want.

In the mid 70's I was able to get consistent 25 mpg with a /6 and 3 on the tree 66 Dodge Coronet. I advanced the timing some, added CDI ignition, and replaced the air cleaner top with a piece of Plexiglas. I also did the same with a 273 2-barrel 66 Barracuda with auto trans without...

I would think 5K is a good deal. Get a good alignment. The caster and camber are done with eccentric bolts on the upper a-arm. The setting are inter-related and take some fiddling and patience to adjust. Caster that is not even side to side may be responsible for the drift feeling even if all...
