Testing out wordpress mobile.
Today I attempted to swap my mechanical fan out for the electric radiator fans from a 94-97 Nissan Altima. Both the 240sx and the Altima use the KA24DE engine but the being that the Altima is a front wheel drive car the engine is mounted transversely and it uses dual electrical fans. It would seem only logical then to swap them into the rear wheel drive 240sx for electric fans with an OEM look. Continue reading ‘Trial & error’
My 13 year old car gets better gas milage now than in 1993. Originally rated at 21-22 city mpg 26-28 highway mpg, 15 7/8 gal tank.
After my recent tune up at just over 133,000mi I’ve gone through the first tank (gas light came on during the way home from work) giving an estimated 24-25 city mpg on 87 octane.
In comparison, a week ago, just before the tune up I was getting between 17-19 city mpg also on 87 octane.
Now if only gas would cost what it did back in 1993 (~$1.30/gal which was still considered high) I’d be set!
After a few years and some sporatic posting I realized that I was never very happy with the (in)direction that this blog was taking. So I’ve decided to trash the database and reinstall wordpress in hopes that I will be able to keep up with the site and continue posting whether people read or not.
A lot has changed in my personal life as well. I’m currently working for UPS and AutoZone averaging between 50 and 60hrs a week and enjoying almost every second of it. One of the perks of working at AutoZone is an employee discount which I believe is designed to not allow you to leave work with any money left in your pocket. It’s also rekindled a dying love affair with my car and I plan on using a portion of this site to keep track of that.
I guess that’s it for now, I’m going to jump back to the admin side and finish putting things together.
