    just for info,,
    at one stage while away towing the van,, I had a fixed +33 for a week or so,, car gave 3.5 kays per litre(towing) while this happened,, ran ok at this reading too.
    with EVERYTHING running as advertised I get---- 4.5 kays per litre towing,,
    I'm sure someone will work out the % increase...

    I just replaced the plenum gasket spark plugs and leads. It is running much smoother. I was also suspect of the red brake booster clip connection. I will replace it with a barb tomorrow just locktited in for now. My brake pedal feel is better it isn't as firm. Still have a little flat spot on a half throttle down change. I guess I will live with it.

    My fuel economy has reduced from 28-33 litres per hundred down to around 21 litres per hundred around town which isn't bad considering the extras on it.
