For what it's worth I have an Oldsmobile Bravada that I have been trying to squeeze better mileage out of. It's basically the same as a Blazer or Jimmy but with AWD instead of 2wd or 4wd. I have done some little stuff and I have managed to get it from an average of around 14.5 up to over 19 but I am trying to keep the mods on the more mild side for now. Although I really hope to pull off the ultimate mod on this truck early next year, which would be to just go ahead and jack up the radiator cap and roll a more efficent car under it.
Exactly what i was thinking about that cap!!I'm just using the blazer in our business,since it's "Like a rock" I will just keep feeding it at $1.30 per litre. mpg is 14-18 bit awlful if you ask me.
