yeah, Dave got it. Don't run Konis at full hard or soft (for very long). Just back it off a bit. 1/8 turn? As for the o2, I'd always heard you could hit it with a torch to clean it. Urban legend? Bad info?
Just turning accell fuel back to the recommended FM settings has got me to 31.5 mpg for in-town driving. That's from 29-29.9 average. I had increased all accell zones by 1 point for some reason a year ago. No other changes and I drove rather aggressively this past tank. Maybe I should try more than 30 psi in my tires...
