Perhaps variations in fuel are part f the problem -- I check the mileage evrytimg we fill up and have the numbers going back to when we bought the car. It was seeing 24-27 until I fixed some problems and sawit go to 28-30 with an occassional 31 or 32. Naturally I;d love to stay at 32mpg - Thanks - Larry T (66 MGB, 74 911, 91 300D) www.youroil.net for Oil Analysis and Weber Parts Test Results http://members.rennlist.com/oil PORSCHE POSTERS! youroil.net 800-583-8601 Weber Carb Info http://members.rennlist.com/webercarbs
