Been having issues with the vacuum and turbo control, so the MPG is falling. The MFD went from nearly 3 MPG off to pretty close because I advanced the cam to where it used to be, since I was already having other issues to deal with.

Yay!! Made it to 900+ miles again! A few long trips on the freeway during this tank helped. Also added skid plate and block heater about midway through this tank.

was forced to drive into work via the through the city route more than on the highway this time. Just put in a new fuel filter was overdo and the car is running smoother with easier starts it may help on the next tank ... along with less traffic during spring break week :)

Drove hard, found fuel leak - caused by cracked Quantity adjuster housing. Resealed pump and installed new quantity adjuster guts. Spilled a bit of fuel in the process. :( Car runs better now. no more fuel leak or air in the lines. :)
