This is a Test, Only a test.
For the next 60 seconds... well you know the drill.
Maybe Brent did find something wrong? As an aside, this past Tuesday I took the coupe out of hibernation. Gave it a bath and changed the oil / filter /lubed... Glancing at the 2018 Inspection Sticker... um.. yep, need to fix that too.
when I wanted to leave tho', I discovered I had no brakes! Pedal went to the floor. Back to the shop ( on a steep hill!) and found the fluid low, added some and recruited a helper to bleed out any air. All fixed and back out to the gas station and then the inspection station. Got my new sticker and a kid there asked me what kind of miles per gallon I got..??..?? I said it was measured in smiles per gallon and I get loads of'em! I don't think he really understood what I was saying!

I did, maybe. Or at least I think I did? I didn't fail, did I? That's OK, isn't it?
What's the prize? There is a prize, isn't there? There should be a prize, shouldn't there be? I did win, didn't I?

Some mistakes are too much fun to be made only once.
I don't know everything about anything, and I don't know anything about lots of things.

All on Brent, I have nothing to do with the hardware/software here. Originally Posted by 34_40

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
