Fuel mileage question
So today I figured out what my mpg's was and to my dismay I'm only gettin 14.5 per gallon. Is this a little low or about average? I run my php chip on 80hp daily driver and keep the rpms under 2000. Is there anything I can do to help this? I have already cleaned the exhaust back pressure tube. This site always seems to have the best answers. Love fte thanks cody

Mileage seems to be normal as compared to mine, running 315's as well here.
Another thing to consider is this the only time you have measured MPG's have they started using winter mix in your area? About a month ago the stations around me began winter mix, and I get a little less MPG's if I use no addititives. Although most stations around me pre mix Power Service Diesel Kleen anyway.

Yeah, I think the summer fuel has a little more paraffin in it.
At least I think it's paraffin....
