hey guys,
just a dumb question maybe...
I came from colorado 5,200ft above sea level, and now im staying with family for a while
in texas at like 4ft above sea level.So i guess my question is do i need to adjust my timing cause i run like 7deg at altitude should it bumped back down to 5deg. Also would it benefit me in on way or the other?

And is there anything else i would maybe need to change?

Thanks
Gary

Gary, if it's not showing knock, you can probably leave it be untill you get back up here. If you're showing knock, I'd back it up a schosche and call it good.

I'd pop across the border and get some color put on that white primer... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif

Actually, I'm envious of what you've done. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worthy.gif

You took a stripped shell, and built a damn nice runner out of it peice by piece.

Now you're out boosting around the country...

That's livin large!

Where's the pics? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Do you have a logger with you? It might be a good idea to plug it in and look at the fuel trims.

Also, with all the miles you're piling on, at some point you should probably check the driveline fluid levels, especially the t-case.

And as for driveline oil levels i replaced em all just before i left!!
I been taking some pic's once i get to a computer that can handle picture uploads, ill be sure to post up some of my travels.

And document how many miles i chart with my little whitey. So far
i put just over 1500 on the clock since i left home.
