Being in Korea as a business traveler is stressful in unexpected ways. I did my best to learn a little Korean before I left: I can identify most consonants and a few vowels and sound most short words out, but, like, finding a place to eat has proven remarkably challenging since I lack a fundamental ability to parse information in Hangul. Still, it's nice here, and most people are really enthusiastic about helping (especially pantomiming about the right way to eat food).

IMO more people should try poo poo like this. You haven't lived until you spend time in a place where you speak fuckall with the natives.

Coils don't have power and the rev counter is all over the place sometimes.

revcounter gets its lovin from the alternator.
P38s/DIIs onward used the actual CPS through a data bus.
There should be a few different fuses pertaining to engine management.
Coils should be powered with key turned to ignition.

23% so far, and they can't up your bill based on your driving habits so we shall see. My only annoyance with it is that if it senses a change in speed +/- 8mph in 3 seconds or less, it dings you and reduces your discount by 5%. Sometimes merging onto the highway requires you go from 20mph to 55mph real quick depending on how long the onramp is. Braking hard i dont really have an excuse for :shrug:

Cool now I understand why everybody with 600hp shitboxes is slower than my anemic as gently caress 80s diesel.

truck routinely gets 13-16mpg, bike gets 30-42mpg. Truck typically gets a fill once per month or two(39 gal). . bike never misses a gas station(5.8gal). Commute is 30mi round trip on class days.
