I changed my thermostat over the weekend. The engine temperature used to hover around 165F and now it's rock solid at 192F (87C stat). I usually struggle to keep the Scangauge mileage reading over 40mpg on my morning commute, today I improved the tank average to 42mpg. I may be heading to a record range on my tank.
