Subject: MPG (was Dyno Results from Changing from a Link to a Hydra)


I just swapped out the injectors in my MPG car (went from the 440's back
to OEM) and had to decide whether or not to hack up the stock harness
for sequential. I was hoping there was a significant difference so I
stuck with sequential for the new injectors.

I am installing some #4 heat range plugs with larger gaps in the MPG car
today. Trying to chase down the miss fire problem I am having. I know
people over estimate the MPG they get on their Miatas but DAMN I have
been stuck at 35 MPG for weeks and can't get over that hump. I need to
get the car out on the interstate for a nice long drive to see what my
MPGs really are. I just can't understand how people are getting 28-30 on
a stock Miata and my modified car doesn't get much better . I think it
is time to check my speedometer against the GPS because I should be
higher than this. I am running stock 14" 7-spoke wheels so I would
figure my speed should be spot on but you never know.
