When I say eating, I mean that for how the fuel gauge drops, I should be smelling a massive leak somewhere, but no such luck. What I mean is using nearly quarter of a tank of fuel for 3-4 hours idling time. Actually it probably uses more at idle (when it still has the miss) than on the road. -- "Mac" Steve MacSween Aylmer, Quebec (Canada) Mercedes: '82 300sd / '82 240d (x2) / '60 220s Volvo: '87 245 (waiting for OM616 transplant) SAAB: '83 900T (waiting for a miracle)
