i think you must've misunderstood what i was getting @.

i'm getting about 17mpg, and i've filled up my fuel tank 4 times, in the last 7 days (about 65L/17 gal each time).


you do the math.



and people wonder why i change my oil every month.

Will be working on my truck this weekend. Gonna try to get the engine in and running!!! Also gonna check out the 83 Blazer on Saturday, hopefully it will be mine soon, I'm gonna see if he will go down on the price a little.

I'm also looking to do something with my dash... I'm tired of it looking the same... I might paint it. But I would love to do something with the gauge lights.

I get 17mpg too.

I stopped counting the days between oil changes. I just know I buy a big case every three changes. 100 miles a day 7 days a week....blah. I can't wait to go back to 5 work days a week. IDC if I get paid 30 hours OT....I WANT TIME WITH MY BOYS!

I think you still got me beat so a car in order for your DD? lol....sometimes I wish I bought a car til I look at the blazer.

So I'm sitting here at my Dad's... getting ready to work on my engine. And we started looking at my Camshaft and there are all sort of numbers on them, I looked online and couldn't find anything on them...

Oh... and my engine is a 4 Bolt Main...

That a cam or a crank? I see rods so I'm thinking I'm looking at a crankshaft.
