Well, if you don't ask, there is no chance of getting!

Yes, but 5K miles is a lot of pace setting!

Where is the trophy for best fuel mileage?

Welcome!

Hmmm, looks like I had better bring the wiper arms with me!

How is the weather looking for the trip? You could always remove the wiper arms. J/K! Dry and hot!

How about the weight savings??>.. 5 lbs?>.. Weight savings, wind resistance reduction and the "cool" factor!

These old mirrors needed a place to go, and I'm happy to see them spend some time on I-40 for Bullnose MPG testing! They might decrease drag, but they'll also decrease your rear view...lol. I just cleaned them up. They're not perfect, but they'll look just fine at 60mph. Well, the Type 5 mirrors are installed and ready for the trip to Skiatook. Installation was easy and they are in very nice condition, Cory. It is still in the driveway and has not yet been driven, but I will comment that the rear view is more compact.

Little Red, on the other hand, will have 87 octane with none of the higher test. You will be in for culture shock, I am afraid.

Welcome, ef1hundred! My sister and her husband live in Port Macquarie, Australia.

But boost is fun..... Well, I will be driving Gary's 3.5L Ecoboost 2015, so perhaps I will find out?

Even if you do not stay, Tallboy, please tell us how you found this forum.

Happy 104th Birthday to your grandmother!

Faded Old Red Driver

Nice documentation, Jonathan!

Great work!

Even a replacement starter can be bad [unfortunately]. You have checked the timing, but the next time the hot start dragging occurs, pull the coil wire and attempt to start the engine. If the engine suddenly spins faster, then timing is involved. How about the battery to ground and starter cables? Make certain all connections are clean and tight.
