Re: Fuel Trip Computer build thread

Fuel Trip Computer build thread
Over the years there have been several requests from Merkur owners looking to install the Euro Fuel trip computer in their XR4.

Carlisle Ford Nationals Photos

Ford of Germany Merkur Article
Here's a treat for you. Allen Patch of the UK's XR Owners Club came across this article on the Merkur program from around 1988. It's in German but has some great images.
