how much has it helped with your fuel econ?
Well I finally got a good fill with the grille block, and I got... 22.56mpg! that's up over 2mpg from last fill with only a bottom block at 20.22! No changes in driving habits. The bottom block fell off after It rained for 2 weeks and warmed up, which was a good thing cause my oil temp was skyrocketing from the extra heat.

I added 6 gallons midway cause gas got cheap all the sudden, so I just added that to the 19 gallons at fill up and divided the miles on the odo. I Had no Idea if I was doing good or not because I'm used to seeing nothing over 500 miles. I fill up around the time the fuel light comes on. It didn't come on this time. so I was confused the whole way

I'm getting ever so closely to my short term goal of 25mpg and long term of 30! here we come!
