"Don't know what is going on. Saw a good climb and now dropping back off to 40 for last 2 tanks. Can't imagine new plugs made that much of a difference. Doesn't seem like my grill block helped either so that will be coming off for the sake of testing again without it over the next couple tanks. I'm trying to keep the same driving habits I was using when I first signed up but maybe I am starting to get lazy with them. Also my cruise control has been acting up so I have been doing a lot more foot driving/speed wondering." |
