Well we are back from our trip to the Maritimes, 10 days and 2700 miles and not an issue with the Murray.

The average MPG (converted to US Gal to prevent whining) 9.9

The best was 11.6, flat hyway in Ontario.

The worst was 7.7, Hilly twisting in New England

No oil was needed to be added. I started at the full mark and its about the midway operating range now.

First time among some major hills, so I can see I'll need to change the final drive before we goto the west coast.

Best idea.. bringing Keurig coffee maker

I do need to figure out why I had to retard my spark advance in the EBL.
