Best tank yet - 55.53 mpg!!

Best tank yet - 55.53 mpg!!

Recent changes:

Improved front grill block dues help coasts. (http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ock-22280.html)
Changed over to 10W-30 oil after having used 15W-40 for years, due to a leaking cam/dizzy o-ring seal.
Warmer weather always helps!

It seems to be a good time for personal records ;)

I'm only doing marginally better with my (trouble plagued) diesel. :o

Hägar's last three tanks are very nice indeed!

Hi Bruce,

since you did change oil from 15W40 to 10W30 could you tell how much (%) improvement in FE you noticed only by changing the oil?

Look in my gas log at the entries around June 10, 2012. My notes tell me that's the date of the change in oil type. Comments there should tell you more.

If you see "MMO" mentioned that's Marvel Mystery Oil. I do measure the amount added to fuel and count it in fillups.

Looking good, Man. Gotta get those good tanks in before cold weather sets in.
