But if I drive at a steady 15.3 throttle position, speed should vary in a regular way--everything else being controlled as effectively as possible. Therefore, if I cover the same terrain at a higher speed and in less time as a result of a mod my gal/hr. should be lower and my MPG higher. Seems logical to me. What's the flaw, exactly?
