Hi!

I'm Donat Kovacs-Bokor from Hungary. Of course I'm here to learn ways how to reduce my car's fuel consumption. I'm an economics without technical skills!

I have a Volvo 244 from 1982. It has a diesel motor (2383ccm). It was rebuilt with quality parts (fe: Mahle pistons). Its factory average fc. is 37,7mpg (7,5L/100km).
The only modification is that I installed a PCV jar to the engine.
My highway mpg on 90km/h is 54,3mpg (5,2L/100km). I use 10w40 oil.

I want to reduce rmp of the engine on higher speed so I hunt for a longer differential (3,31 instead of the current 3,73 ratio)

I tried a spiral HHO tool,too but it did not make enough gas to reduce the mpg. Of course I want to modify it and try again.

Heaven ice day'!
