351 plus TM36-68 Eee Hhaa!

Here are my MPG observations so far (with TM36).
Last weekend I did Jimmy Lewis' off-road riding class in Pahrump, NV.
Sunday was a long day with "drills" in the morning and an enduro loop in the afternoon.
The drills were all 1st - 2nd gear "trashing". Full acceleration, wheel lofting, hill climbs etc. Afternoon included playing in the sand dunes.
With all that heavy throttle use, the bike still hit reserve at 84 miles with the stock tank filled to brim.
That's just a bit over 50MPG. Not bad for pumper carb in all out off-road conditions.
Riding on the highway at +/-70MPH I also seem to get 50 - 55 MPG.
In normal back-roads riding the fuel mileage gets even better.

You da man!! The next thing I need to find is a metric Crescent wrench, all mine are in inches.

Good luck, those are rare as hens teeth. Being a south paw i'm still looking for a set of left-handed screwdrivers.

Could I use it to work on a quantum mechanical version of the engine in my KLX
