Thumbs up Best mileage so far.

I decided to start logging my EXP's mileage here since of the other forum I previously used for logging doesn't really have that much activity anymore.

I changed my shift points and used 93 octane. The mileage that I got from this tank is 42.65 mpg. That is better by 1.6/mpg than the previous best tank. (Previously without the the underbelly tray, last summer during the hot weather).

I recently changed from 10w-40 to 5w-30 oil. We will see if it makes a difference on the current tank. Hopefully warmer temps will also help things.
