Car is running well. This is the fill before trip to DM. # gal. is not exact. but is also accounted for in the first fill in the trip. 85 octane but 104+ added, so maybe ~ 87???

Car is running good. Flat tire (rt. rear) crossing the tracks north of Budweiser. Blew out the tire so had to tow and buy new. This tank was 91 octane from the pump and performed well. Didn't notice the blip at 2700 rpm as much but still there a bit. Put the regular in today with the Liquid Performance so will compare.

Car is running great. I filled this tank with pump gas 91 octane just to see how the mpg's is and how it runs. Will know more in a couple of weeks.

Car is running great. This tank included a trip to Boulder for lunch with Mike and Sue and Karl. A fair amount of stop and go from I25 to Boulder. Put the new front license plate bumper on the car this week. looks pretty good, might need to fit new keepers for the screws, however.

Car is running great. Changed the oil last week. 3Qts Evolve 5w-40, 2 qts. Molygen 5w-50, 15 oz. Cera Tec, 12 oz. Camgard. ~ 6qts. total and the oil level gauge is right where it should be. Ordered new braided brake hoses. Installed ball pins for the rear deck strut on the left side today. Two struts seems to be too much down force so not using 2 struts. Failed experiment!

Car is running great. This tank was mostly the Quadruple Bypass up in the mountains. 22mpg going up 36 coming down. Better coming down as engine cuts off fuel (DFCO) coasting. No issues at all - great car!

Car is running great. This is the top-off before the PCA drive on Sat. Tour begins in Wheat Ridge, up Clear creek canyon, over Guanells pass, Kenosha pass, Hoosier pass, lunch in Dillon. Probably home over Loveland pass.

Car is running great. Changed out the coolant flange and the alt bolt. The bolt went right in, no problem as the old bolt was bent. I left the added hose on the top of the coolant flange to give the oil fill tube more room to move upward. Everything seems good!

Car is running great - nice and smooth. I like the Evolve with CeraTec. No issues. I put the heat wrap on the oil filler tube. need to replace the coolant flange and the alt. bolt.

Orin Jct, Wy to here and then used a fiver in addition to a regular fill. The car is running great. Got two new rear Continental tires. Then had Scott's do an alignment. Not sure I am 100% confident with the way they did the alignment. Camber is quite adjusted at the top of the FR strut, but no adj. on the FL strut. I'll talk with Brendan next week about what I'm seeing. But the car does drive nice with no pull. It's the tire wear I'm concerned about. I'd asked them to set it up with neutral toe and camber front and rear as per the Dempsey 100 projects book. The car is really smooth and quiet. I feel the Liquid Performance is working and the CeraTec seems fantastic. And mpg's seem improved.

Car is running well. I put a new oil filler pipe on last week. Broke the crappy coolant flange so coupled the lines with a brass barbed coupler held in place with velcro to the block. If the old one had broken on the road, it would have left me stranded. Old plastic in the engine compartment is NOT reliable! Leaving tomorrow morning for Montana. Car should be all ready to go!

Car is running great. This fill includes the fill from Sterling ~130 miles. Found a cracked oil filler tube on the car and will change out the oil level sensor at the same time. Still waiting on parts. FCP Euro shipping sucks and I will not order from them again. Might wash car tomorrow.

Changed the oil and filter today. The oil looked clean, the filter had no bits or metal. Drained 6 qts out, put 6 qts. in. EvoSyn 0w-40 plus 12 oz. Camguard. Ordered some Cerratec today and will add that this week. Sent sample to Blackstone to see how the EvoSyn is doing. Looking for lower lead values. Edit: I drained out the filter 2X for a total of 32oz. oil. then added 2X bottles of CeraTec for a total of 20 oz. So, my total fluids added for this oil change are: 6qts + 12oz Camguard - 32oz oil + 20oz. CeraTec = exactly 6 qts. The level shows at the 2nd line down on the OBD display or one space empty. Right where I want it. But, is this accurate??? I ordered a new level sensor and a new filler pipe as mine is cracked.

This is just the top-up before heading out to DM tomorrow via Neb. City. Car is running well. the F. suspension is quiet after the replacements and the Ceramic pads are quiet and hopefully dust-free. All ready for the road trip!

Okay, inner and outer tie rods all replaced. Also R&R'd all control arms and the sway bar links on each front corner. The sway bar bushings looked just fine so left those in. No more creaking and the car still seems nice and straight so I doubt anything was compromised in the alignment. After the tie rods, had to go back in and give the right side one more turn. Perfect after!

Car is running great. R&Ring inner and outer tie rods soon, as I have about 1/16" play in wheel side to side. New Delphi with life warranty from RA. Also got new ceramic brake pads for the fronts to do away with the dust. Will do those soon too.
