Good job on gettin 'er done, and now a suggestion; Whatever shop you take it to, do inform them of what you did and advise to double check that the lines into the evaporator are fully connected. I can't even begin to describe how PO'd we get when they blow off in the middle of a service because someone didn't get them shoved on all the way. They can feel quite secure and still not have gotten the spring over the flare.

Actually it uses next to no oil as far as I know and I have a hypertech E-con (waist of money) and it helps maby 1 or 2 mpg's. But the computer says I get about 13mpg. Which is normal as far as I know. I do have a question about the plenum though, if its bad does that mean that coolant would be draining into the oil somehow?

aahh, ok, Im just trying to figure out if the plenum needs replaced and I was thinking that make it drain into the oil. There isnt any coolant in the oil though. Im gonna park my truck for the winter so Ill deal with plenum next year lol
