Hey all! I gotta brag about this. My 84 GL with 1.9l was rebuilt by Bob Birkholz (Grand Mesa Imports here in Delta, CO) 3 1/2 years ago. He rebuilt it with German bearings and sodium filled valves. I've got over 60k on the engine now and I use this baby for my daily commute. I drive 100 miles R/T daily on a 4 lane. My speed is 70-75 and my gas mileage is consistently 24-25 mpg in the summer and 22-23 in the winter. Last Sunday, I had to take my wife to Glenwood Springs to get some stuff and then commute to work Mon and Tues. My gas mileage was 25.99 mpg when I filled up Tues night.! Even I couldn't believe it! I thought my gas gauge was off... John
