Random thoughts for the day

I noticed after a couple hundred miles of highway driving I'm back up to 18.1 mpg for the time being!
I initially found it odd that in matter of a few days it dropped from 16.8 to 16.0 with mostly city driving which was a bit odd !
The SHO runs better and stronger than ever with absolutely ZERO Codes. Z

Sure to make the old man proud, Z!I found a Good thread over @ the Edge Forum on NGK spark plugs and It's double precious metal meaning it has iridium on the electrode and the ground strap,which gives it the 100k service life .
BTW I did order the NGK 97122 Plugs for experimental purposes!
I will also see if I can measure the coil resistance for reference and will post some PICS very shortly. Z
