Unloaded this last week I got 18-19 mpg on 4consecutive tanks of fuel.all highway tho. And my dd tune is such a turd it won't get out of its own way. But great economy. 14 with the 27' TT at 7000lbs.
The last 70k i put on the mule have taken a toll. I had minimal blow bly fumes but not I have more fumes, but no pressure behind it
Here is a pic of The Mule's blow by.
(Im to stupid to put a video up)
I bought the truck used in 98 with 33,000 miles. Just before 36,000 (end of warranty) I took it to Ford with a little lope at idle. While performing a bunch of diagnostics they determined it had the dreaded?? Water cavitation issue along with others. It may have helped to have several friends working there?? They decided to replace the engine with a Ford Rebuilt so I had them do the flywheel recall?? and I paid for a new clutch.
I now have approx. 75,000 total miles &/or 36,000 on engine. Shortly after the turbo started leaking and they replaced it and seal??
Truck runs great now what with good fuel pressure and the TS chip.
After the engine replacement I bought a Banks Git Kit (chip and 3" down pipe) and when installed I replaced exhaust with 3 1/2" straight pipe w/homemade 5" x 48" muffles. Muted exhaust but nice! Also after all this when revved up and full boost it is now 25" instead of less than 20".
