Couldn't get the Vista Cruiser running for the past 2 weeks, threw a new ignition coil on and a new battery and she fired right up! Took her out for a cruise, so happy. Just thought I'd share.

 

Nice! Can' tell from the avatar if it's a 71 or 72. Suspect 71...

 

''threw a new ignition coil on and a new battery and she fired right up!


now thats a great feeling!

 

Just out of curiosity ...........What kind of gas mileage do you get?

 

Pretty good eye Allen, its actually a '70 with the front end of a 71' cutlass supreme on it. I'm looking for the right front clip and hood for it so I can trade or sell the front clip and hood on there. James, I haven't gotten to drive it enough yet to get a sense of gas mileage yet. However I used to own an '89 Chevy Suburban that had a tbi 5.7 and weighed about the same. It got 10-15 mpg depending on how you drove it.
