Re: motorcycle ride = Longhorn
Wow... factory shoulder belts!
The vacuum gauge is probably to help the PO get better fuel mileage while driving.

Re: motorcycle ride = Longhorn
So when you are running and the vacuum gauge is in the green, that is your best fuel mileage?

Re: motorcycle ride = Longhorn
yes, it basically equates to coasting downhill. Try to leave a dead stop and you're in the red. Go figure. However, a vac gauge can be a useful tuning tool. To use it to estimate best driving habits is a bit of a waste of time - when you give it gas, you get worse mileage, The End.
