Fuel mileage
When i first got my 7.3 4x4 i could get 16 mpg on the highway, Stock with 140K.
Over time it has dropped to about 12 mpg. about 315 miles per tank @ 25 gal.
I drive between 70 and 80 mph
Well after fixing the leaks on the Hpop, fuel bowl valve and installing the 6637 kit, this was the first time i filled the truck up and got to run a full tank through. I usually use the fuel light when i check my mileage. I know i should not run the truck down that low.
But from light to light is how i have been checking it..
I am up to 15.10 mpg again. 24.5 gal of fuel at 370 miles..
I got my 6637 kit installed and have A.E here now. This week i will get my gauges, then Hopefully next month an exhaust then a DP
cant wait to see if it will go up a little more...
