List,
I have a question on the "Italian tune-up". Not wanting to get a speeding
ticket from our local law enforcement, would it damage the tranny to keep it in
a lower gear? Keep a steady rpm load in a lower gear for a set amount of time
or distance? I enjoy high speed driving, but not at the expense of my driving
privilege. Comments please.

leave the shifter in S, and go as fast as the injection pump will let you.
there's a built-in fuel cutoff at the max engine speed, so don't be afraid.
2-3 miles at a time in this manner should do the job.
