Calm down!

The MS has GM bias resistors so i have to use GM default calibrations. All is back to normal again.

I’m taking a mental health day tomorrow and am going to get tags and go out a whole lotta miles on it tomorrow.

Calm down? I'm sitting in a room in a resort overlooking the Caribbean Sea.

I don't come in a version any more calm than this.

I miss those big TX interstates where traffic flows at 80-85 mph.

Just not during the times where they flow at 0 mph.

Man, I've been out of the loop for a while, so much so that I didn't even realize you had sold the old car... The new one is super nice! Looks like you've moved as well? I'll be down in Rosenberg, TX in a couple of weeks, maybe I can come see it if you're gonna be anywhere near there?

Only sees 10 PSI based on what the gauge shows. There's gotta be something else going on, timing, fuel, etc. The mixture is always fat, low 11s high 10s.
