Just filled my tank, and I'm on my way out the the MN rx7 meet, with 86se7en following behind me. He came racing up next to be and was like," hey your losing gas!". So I'm like sweet, finnaly found my problem. I was so damn curious as to how I was getting 5mpg with a map from bdc that shouln't be that far off. Turns out the fuel pump hanger gasket was not on right and the screws weren't tight enough. The gas was sloshing out, so I took it out, put some rtv on both sides of the rubber gasket and put it back on and torked the screws.. All fixed! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif I also fixed an oi leak, forgot a crunch washer on one of the oil cooler fittings...
