Post Decisions & Poor Fuel Economy

If you liked driving your 300D then yes, of course you should fix it and do all those "Might As Wells" too .

OTOH if not let it go .

I'm pretty sure my fuel economy issue is late injection Pump timing coupled with really late up shifting of the slushbox transmission ~ I'm driving it and it runs smooth as silk (freshly rebuilt engine, WOOT) but no one seems to know how to time the I.P. so I'm going to have to do that my owndamnself .

Not to worry, I'll brag,whine or cry right here depending on how it all turns out .
