Jim, I wish you would post the miles covered and gallons used.

Heck, I wish you used Fuelly like I do.

Best thing about Fuelly is sending a text message to record your fuel usage. Send Miles Price Gallons Notes and it sends you back a text message with the MPGs for that tank and the vehicles average.

PS I have a program that I use to calculate and keep my fueling records. It is private and secure. Fuelly is not.

Green: Ripped the front end apart. Aside from the idlers, all the steering components look good. Plan is to repack the wheel bearings, flush the brake lines and clean then reinstall the steering linkage with new Moog idlers.
