> Jeff > 83.5 Westy > (Won't go 85 MPH, even downhill. Not for a lack of trying.) Hmmm... my 1.9l will do 85 easy on the level @ 500' if there is no wind, a little more if I advance the timing. [Makes me wish for a manual timing advance] Could something be out of adjustment in yours? Check timing first. I've got an automatic if that makes any difference. Anyone else have a clue why Jeff can't do 85? TBill P.S. I don't like running wide open for any lenght of time, usually back off to 65 until I can find a truck to follow.> _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
