I pulled up to my shop today and this was the mileage. For the next .7 miles or so I know what I am driving whether I read it forwards or backwards:



I think someone is telling me to be happy with what I have not be tempted by the '91 GT within 2 or 3 threads from here:

Impressive idling oil pressure if engine was at all warm.

New (non-leaking) oil press sender and fresh Kendall 20/50. The car was fully warm 1 hr before pic. Gets down to just above 2 bar at idle fully warm in stop/go. Always pegs the meter with any sort of throttle input no matter the temp.

I lucked out and got a healthy one I think. Now someone please buy the '91 GT so I can stop obsessing.

I think that's normal operation and most of the 928 do the same. If it falls bellow 2 the ! light will start blinking.

Very nice colour by the way.

Wait a min! It's 64 degrees in Washington State in January???

Oh, that's probably in the garage, ain't it??

And I'm freezing to death in what is supposed to be the "warm south"???
