Engine code 2-3-1 on a 240 200 1990

I agree with your plan, although I can't pin your hesitation symptom on it from experience. On the other hand, the reset of the computer's fuel trim has induced that hesitation, and sometimes the need for starting it twice before the learning period has completed.

After breaking more odometer gears than I needed to break to document the replacement process, I stopped using the trip buttons on the electronic speedos. I write the mileage on the gas receipt (habit forming) and collect them in a box, figuring one day I could go back through them and do another spreadsheet if I needed to. But I never will, having already done that once. But I asked about the mileage anyway, as it can be an indicator things are going well. The only way I'd get 37 is to track it only downhill from Denver maybe. 26 is more like what I get on trips.

Post back with the results. If the weather was hotter it almost sounds like the symptoms another daughter had when the tank pump failed.
