I changed out the thermostat in DaGnoma this evening from 180F to 195F for a whopping $8. I can't remember exactly why I had installed the 180F in the first place, probably just to drop the temp in the summer a few years back. This week so far I have averaged about 26.7 MPG +/- 0.5 each way on my commute. This evening was a little more dramatic, dropping down to about 25 MPG, thanks to one helluva wreck on the main highway back home - creating bumper to bumper traffic crawling at 10 mph for about eight miles... ugh. It's a little difficult to do ABA testing on a 'stat, but the weather and my FE have been pretty consistent as of late, so I'll post back tomorrow with the results.
