If my math is right, my '76 40 with 2f is getting 8 mpg. I know the gas mileage is supposed to suck, but ….this bad?? Running 32" tires ( i have adjusted for this in my math). Engine is de-smogged. 4 speed with 4.11 gears. Aisin carb and Delco dizzy (installed by one of the PO's). Running non-ethanol 87 octane gas. Compression is running 115 - 125 depending on cylinder. I've adjusted valves also.
I'm no wiz with timing or carb adjustments, but can I expect to get much more by messing with these?
I'm not expecting much out of the rig, i just love to drive it. But would like to resist the urge to gas up at every station I see....
