Well, I've made about ten trips totaling around 7 hours and it hasn't done it again! I'm thinking that was the fix! Whew! I'll post some pics below. I can't tell if they cut anything or not.
Well, it's very infrequent that it's happening. Like every few days. I found that the plug going in to the accelerator pedal wasn't snapped all the way down and the plug going in to the back of the...

Pic is 35 years old. Doesn't look quite that nice now. This pic was taken at the Phillips 66 Terminal in Doraville, GA where my grandfather worked when it was his truck.
I don't have the OEM but I have one that looks very similar and is made for the mirage. After taking mine on and off several times, I've decided it's enough of a pain and risks for scratching the...
I thought the Rostra cruise control might actually hurt my mileage. But I was wrong. I got 59.5mpg this morning on my commute with the roof racks on. Granted, it was a holiday with empty roads and I...
It worked really well and was no more trouble than hauling our jon boat with my old truck plus we didnt pollute with our nasty ancient outboard and we had the comfort of riding in AC. It was a pain...

Used the Mirage to go kayak fishing and used my tow hook! MPG hit was about the same as it was with the bike on roof. Hard to say as we had some imposed 20mph driving for a good ways.
Put my roof rack on for the first time and went fishing at the beach. It went really well. Besides not being able to take our big fishing cart, it was nice just strapping the rods to the roof and...
I like to exercise Florida is very muggy. I put in some neoprene seat covers to protect my upholstery and they made me hotter than the regular seat. I didn't notice getting a sweaty back until I...
Same route today in the opposite direction at 8am. I had to run the AC at 75 with fan level one, had one brief traffic jam and stopped for fuel midway.
This is my best so far on my 82 mile commute. I did this at 6am with no AC. I monitored my new scangauge to judge best RPM and speed to travel. Occasional neutral coasting on some hills. No traffic....
Put in a wood bead seat cover to see if it keeps me cooler. It was $18 after speed perks discount at advanced auto and was delivered to my home free the same day. The young man who delivered didn't...
Well, I'm all in now. I met a forum member this morning and bought a fresh looking set of Enasaves from him and tonight I went to harbor freight and for $133 bought their manual tire changer and...
Yes, I saw all the reviews. Haha, I guess anything was a step up for me in luxury. I didn't read any bad reviews from anyone who actually owned a mirage.
In Florida, paramedics can start IVs in the field and in the hospital setting. Kind of cool thing as a paramedic, is we can do anything our medical director (a physician) authorizes us to do. We work...
Yes, I've been researching them for a few weeks but today was the first time I had seen one in person except for a couple seen driving down the road! Compared to a S10 with 35 year old bench seat...
