[Shotimes] temp reading

Holy cow!!  You only got 170 miles per tank or you only drove 170 miles
between fill-ups?  Assuming you filled up often, maybe 13 gallons each time,
that's barely 13 mpg!!

Even with this cold weather, and even with this winter formula fuel, and
even with my heavy right foot, I'm still going 280 miles between fill-ups
and putting in 14 gallons each time on my '93 ATX

Glad you got the problems figured out.  It's pointless to drive an ATX SHO
and get the gas mileage of a 350 Chevy!
