Really, really liking the way it looks.
 
Took it on its inaugural Maritime Land Cruiser Cape Breton trip! 6 days, 5 nights through the Cape Breton highlands. Lots of snowmobile and ATV trails, service roads, nice views and good mild to moderate four wheeling.

Started off at Big Spruce Brewing as usual:

The running issue I was having manifested itself a few times on this trip.

Basically, the cruiser felt like it was running lean under most conditions. Then, when floored or brought above 2800rpm, it would run fine. A couple of times it stalled out, then I'd wait for it to cool down and it would run okay when started again.

Near the end of the trip I had a suspicion and crawled underneath, to find that the fancy stainless exhaust system had no O2 sensor bungs in it. Yup, it was running with no O2 sensors this whole time.

I will probably start another thread or post in an existing 3FE diagnostics thread to continue on with this issue.
 
Lord, Maine up through the Maritimes is just heaven on earth to me. That used to be my Columbus Day annual road trip journey.

Fantastic.

As sidenote I'm heading east soon and was going to take the Dorena-Hickman Ferry but see it's closed due to low water.

If your ever up this way reach out to the Maritime Land Cruiser FB page. We are not a huge club but any Cruiser visitors are welcome🍻
 
Thank you and will do. I always get beer lag when I cross the border = adjusting to Molson and Labbatts being the cheapo domestics and Budweiser and Miller being the expensive imports! Great pics again!
