Over the years there have been several requests from Merkur owners looking to install the Euro Fuel trip computer in their XR4. I did this 20 years ago when the availability of parts, and communication sharing channels, was a lot more difficult. Last month the topic again resurfaced on Facebook so I...

Hi - first of all it was wonderful meeting everyone again at Carlisle. I think we did a good job of keeping safe and respecting guidelines regarding safe social behaviors and it was mentally stimulating to attend Carlisle and have some sort of 'normalcy' to our crazy lives at the moment.

I am not particularly interested in packing up individual parts and shipping them as I am packing up the whole house and spending some time ...
