Do you have an air dam? It seems from everything I've read that keeping airflow from running under the aerodynamically dirty underside really helps.
(That and removing the windshield and using a streamlined periscope..) _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert McElwee Sent: Friday, June 20, 2008 8:00 AM To: miatapower List Subject: MPG up 74% Original MPG = 20 Current MPG = 34.8 Still no working WBO2 but I did some leaning on all fuel zones this week. No pinging or other problems to report. I'm not exactly sure what the next step is but there are a few things on my list. The 50 PSI tires are a little rough so I'll be putting my Konis on full soft in a few days. It is oil change time and I'll go with a lighter weight oil this time. I might start investigating a partial "mouth" block for aero as well as a warmer thermostat and a change in when the fans kick on. Q: Any way to clean a WBO2 sensor? The sensor is pretty newish (not many miles on it) but it just won't work. I'm guessing I killed it by running too rich. Q: When adjusting yellow Konis to soft, can you screw the adjustment knob too far (clockwise or counter-clockwise?). I remember something about damaging the shocks when turning it too far one way or another but I cannot remember for sure. -- Robert McElwee and Blue Flash "The 40 MPG Miata" www.lightweightmiata.com/mpg Lightweight Miata Forum: www.lightweightmiata.com/forum The Miata Trailer Project: www.lightweightmiata.com/trailer
