Hi. Glad to have found this great resource. I have a 1995 Nissan hardbody pickup in XE King Cab trim with a 3.0 V6 with 433,000 miles. It runs great and hauls toys, tools, and trash. I can't ever expect to sell this thing for its true value to me, nor do I want to.

So I'm assembling the following parts to try and get better fuel economy, and drivability. Along with raising up tire pressure to ~50 PSI. Electric fan and controller. IAT sensor resistor.

My question is how much MPG can I reasonably expect to gain with these changes?

And can anyone recommend other parts or techniques to squeeze out more efficiency?

Thanks ya'll!
