I do have a locking gas cap, why? I just ordered a non-locking cap because I'm tired of needing keys to fill my cheap-ass car that SHOULD have a filler door.
Something to do with it not venting? I drove a 10-gallon fill up with eggshell toes like my Type 1 that gets babied, and I still only netter 12mpg on the highway at 65. Boo.
I was able to nudge the static adjustment richer and blast my dynamic adjustment a dozen teeth or so leaner to get 12.5-13.5 cruise. Interestingly, a 55-70 flog at full throttle left me at 11.3 solid. So now my full throttle enrichment is putting me where I was at cruise before, and I have the upper teen to low 20's overrun shutoff option, whereas before I saw 14.2 on high RPM overrun. (Full throttle enrichment took me down as far as 9.5 before adjustments.) Do those adjustments seem reasonable? Is there such thing as too many teeth on the dynamic adjustment, as long as my entire fuel map is within a safe range? I was expecting three to six teeth to make a larger difference than it did, after seeing how sensitive the static adjustment is.
The drivability seems to have smoothed out some, but I still have a hunch that I have a vacuum leak somewhere. I want to hit 14.0 at 25mph before I even think about taking it to the smog ref. Interestingly, I've been driving at 28* btdc hoses off at max advance. This landed me at 4* idle, which is failing for smog time. I bumped up to "sticker-approved" 7.5* and my entire map was better; idle was close to stoich, light cruise was leaner, and mashing acceleration was the same.
So far so good.
