Used SeaFoam in the intake, engine & gas tank with 500 miles before oil change. I installed my SunForce 15 watt Solar Panel in the rear cargo area with the last 45 miles or so of the tank. Looking forward to some gains in mpg."

It was working just fine, but the gap between the hood kept the coolant too cool, so I put some weather stripping between the hood & bumper & left about a 5"" gap in the middle to reach the hood release. It reaches full oporating temp as it should now and my fuel economy boosted ~5 mpg since last tank."

Had some warmer weather during this tank."

Ran the whole tank with the radiator side of my grill block open, but ran into cooler weather, so some trips my temp. didn't even break 170*. I added some rear tire spats, so hopefully I see a small increase."
2011-04-14 443.9 8.363 $3.9 53.08 "Crystal Flash E0 I had mostly highway driving of speeds ranging from 55-70 mph. Weather was a mix of 40-80 degrees.

I am really pleased with these results, however, this tank may have been underfilled a bit. My MPGuino reported ~57mpg so we'll see how the next tank turns out."
2011-05-27 459.3 8.45 $3.89 54.36 "Crystal Flash E0 This tank was a mix of city and highway driving. Some cooler weather mixed with some rainy days. I think last tank was in fact underfilled a bit, but it all averages out in the end."
2011-06-08 488.1 9.28 $3.89 52.6 "BP E0 This tank was a mix of city and highway driving. More city driving than normal. The last 50 miles or so were with a 50% grill block and A/C full blast. I filled this tank to the very top. Some gas actually poured out accidently. This should now give me very consistant values as I fill it up to the top every time from now."
2011-06-17 466.4 7.896 $3.67 59.07 "Marathon E0 This tank was nearly all highway driving. I had a few city and short trips. The weather was cooler at times and the temp didn't get to full opporating temp. a few times. The 50% grill block is nice for the 80+* weather though. I don't have to turn on the fan at all. It runs at about 185-190 for the most part if it's warmer than 80."

So 47 for the whole tank is consistant. This next tank I should be able to see if the the front wheel well spoilers/tire/control arm spats are going to help."

This tank was 1.32 mpg better than last, but I also drove over 40 miles simply testing out the cruise, stopping, starting & ideling. With this mod, I can now ""lock"" inot any MPG I prefer. 60 MPG seems to be working well for me and able to maintain about 57 mph."

Mostly highway at 57 mph with a few city trips. The Ford MAP sensor mod is working perfectly! I set the cruise PPM to 8000 and installed a SPDT switch to run my VSS & MAP signal wires to it and have the cruise VSS on the common pole so I can switch back and forth from VSS or MAP when setting my cruise. This tank was up 1.58 mpg better than last and up 2.9 mpg from regular cruise tanks."
