Forgive me if I've already told you this postie1686, but that throttle body spacer isn't doing anything for you. Just an expensive paperweight you have on there.

Glad you can get such high MPGs, its a rarity on these trucks.
i never said it was made up with the spacer. and no you havnt told me it was and expencive paper weight. it was given to me thats why i have it.

And I never said anything connecting or inferring your MPGs were because of the spacer, or that you had said it was because of the spacer. I just noticed it in your sig, so I thought I'd mention it.

They work well for most vehicles that have their fuel injected at the throttle body, or so I've been told.

However, our trucks are port injected, not TB injected, so all it does is increase the amount of time it takes for air to get to the intake manifold by a split half second or whatever it is. If anything, that may even hurt performance slightly.
