3 week trip
#8

Fourth day of travel included rolling hills and a 20 mph wind. Series 60 continues to purr and mileage continues to climb. We're now up to 8.71 mpg for the trip. This time last year when I took the same trip I was getting 7.85 mpg. The valve adjustment that I had done in April is the only variable. This is the first interstate trip I have taken since the valve adjustment so this is my first good measurement of mileage for a comparison with last year. The day did end in my first repair since I left. An air fitting that Newell installed for the air brakes for the tow vehicle failed. It was a 90 degree swivel fitting that I replaced with a straight compression type fitting.
