Default Agrivating story.

Once upon a time a man bought a PT cruizer. He thought hed be awesome and drop in a K&N air filter and reset his computer by unplugging the battery. On his first test drive he marvled at the improved performance. Later that same day he noticed that he ALREADY needed more gas. With the use of a local Grocery Store calculator ( the ones on the handle of the cart) he figured out that his GPM had gone from an acceptable 19gpm to a frightening 10gpm. Kiniption fit dosent begin to describe what happened at that point.

After he calmed down and thought out what had happened.

Any Guesses?

When he first drove on the freshly reset computer, he did nothing but mash on the fast pedal and taught the computer that efficiency was not important. So, he reset again and was nice to the car for the next 200 miles. Now, he gets 26 mpg.
