I was not expecting much from Moon Caps. They were heavy weighing 11lb for all 4. Maybe a .5 mpg gain. I will conduct an ABA test on it to confirm if it made an effect and post my results. Still need more time for my Scan Guage to get more accurate. I performed my 2nd calibration after my last fillip. When the error of fuel consumption is +/- 0.1% error on determining how much gas was used compared to how much I put in, I will conduct the test. I should have more consistent readings from tank to tank.

I am only planning on doing a few things that give my 2-4mpg improvement combined and refining my hypermilling. Nothing drastic like installing a smaller engine, lowering and chopping the top, putting a boat tail, an taking extreme measures of reducing the weight of my car.
