Fuel mileage update
Well, after running a bottle of Amsoil through the system and a fresh air cleaner on top, Big Bird turned out 215 miles this past week on a full tank (approx. 19 gals.) for an average of 11.3 mpg. Thats six trips to work through town plus some short runs of a couple miles here and there. I am hoping I can pin down the ghost in my engine this weekend if the bloody snow and arctic air let up some. I am confident that my mpg can go up some more with a little more work. By the way, I looked at a new GMC truck the other night at work to see what the mpg estimates were and was shocked to see 15 city/ 19 hwy. Of course if my 79 was getting that I'd be stoked!
ps: Think Spring....like the picture!
