Art-

I am sorry to hear that your experiment failed. I wish that I can be at a level of confidence someday where I can experiment with the brick; now it is just trying to figure it out. Fyi, I have had it since Sept.

Today, I spent half the day trying to track down a thump and squeek coming from my passenger rear area. I can reproduce it; I am thinking that I didn't tighten the rear control arm bushing bolt enough.

Getting back to the subject, I am trying to figure out how to adjust the fuel/air mixture. My green manual (thank you ebay) says that i need a special diagnosis tool. Something that will read the O2 level coming out of the tailpipe. I need guidance on the tool, or a work around. How do you adjust the mixture? I am thinking that I need to do this before I leave (I am going back east to pick up a 145), since my brick is eating alot of gas.

Thanks-

Joe HC
