I thought I posted in this thread.

Mines a 1997 Hx, has 163k miles, bought it with 140k on the clock. Have only done maintenance and small stuff here and there but i love it, it's been a big change from putting premium in my em1 every couple of days to every other week and using the cheap gas. I plan on keeping this car long term if life lets me.

In my opening post, I did mention that 7th gen's were included but being that there are so few of them, I created this mainly targetting the 6th gen's. So he's OK.

Welcome aboard, Donahue. Thanks for posting here. now get that O2 issue taken care of and let this thread know how your MPG is doing afterwards.

Not bad. Is that a back-up camera on the trunk lid?

A brief side note... I moved back to FL from KY and I'm so glad to no longer deal with ReFormulated Gas. I'm looking forward to my first full fill-up with some good ol' Chevron, of which there are none in KY since they refuse to make RFG. Apparently, their research contradicts the EPAs information that RFG is better for the environment when it actually dissipates if it sits too long (don't drive a lot) than regular fuel and is less efficient. Anyways, I'm currently on Citgo with that new (to me) Tri-Clean additive that seems to be OK so far.
