Added 6.8 mpg

Hi all. just had to share this. i was getting 17 mpg (canadian gallons) on a long trip with my 87 bronco II.
I changed plugs,wires,cap,roter,and O2 sensor .
My milage averaged out to 20.6 mpg over 6 tanks
i was pretty happy with the improvement.

a goodfriend of mine told me to try out lucas oil products inector cleaner.

WHOLLY CRAP BATMAN!!!

My average milage the last 4 tanks has been 23.82
thats a 6.8 mpg increase.

total cost was aroung 150 canadian and it allready paid for itself.
Sweet huh

wow, I guess so!

with routine maintenance you shouldn't notice the change.
If you do notice it damaging wear & tear has already started
