Hi guys,

Thanks for the kind words, this truck is much easyer to work on than any of my other cars so its nice to be able to do custom stuff like this

havnt really done much since last update, too busy on other things.

I filled up again today though, most of this tank was city driving in horrible rainy cold weather and the engine was missfiring a bit for most of the tank so even with me introducing some hypermiling techniques (downhill coasts wherever possible - engine on, and pulse and glide at highway speeds - also engine on) i only managed just over half a MPG increase on the last tank (7.58mpg over the previous 6.98mpg)

still moving in the right direction though so i cant complain, and now its running much better so the next tank should see a bigger improvement.

thanks for lookin
