hey guys,
ok so my 96 dodge, i've been tracking the mpg on it and for a while i was only getting about 11 to 13 but now i am getting like 16.6. i never changed my driving style. stayed in city, the only thing i did was clean my k and n filter but that can't make a huge difference. i know some people will say that not a lot ,but everyone her should a 2mpg jump pretty good. just wondering about thatit been 16.6 the past 4 fill ups

 

Good gravy that would be nice to see 16mpg...... Wish my foot could stay outta firewall lol. No I average about 14 in city with all the mods I have thats not really good lol

 

well like that why i am wondering cause getting a random jump like that isn't the usual. usually it drops

 

Does the truck run fine? If so I wouldn't be complaining lol i would be
Was your K&N pretty dirty?

 

i am not just don't want nothing to come apart caurse i leave in the country. couple of paved rds but mostly dirt. the k and n was more where the pcv valve was shooting oil in it than dirt but i don't think that a problem.

 

You would be suprised at how much better things work when you have a clean air filter. I actually cleaned the K&N in my wifes Grand Prix GTP the other day and took it out for a spin and my god it made a hell of a difference

 

how are you calculating?

the fuel gauge isnt the MOST accurate means to do so.

i thought you were selling this truck?

 

Ditch that jet chip dude. A remake mopar pcm off of jegs or summit will be much better. I have been very dissapointed with jet. I noticed a difference but I must reset it in order to see any perf then a month later the computer learns it and just overides it again. More power man! Like the exhaust though headers make it deep and aggresive. Mine with headers, dual in dual out, with sport style with cuda tips and a thrush muffler sounds like a low growl of a diesel with stacks. Step on it and its a part drag motor. Love em

 

i actually doing pen and paper and a calucator( cause i can't do math).

no i am selling the motor cause i bought a new stock motor but i am having it ringed and the huges plenum done to it so i got the other motor still i am selling it but gotta wait on my other.

i've never noticed much difference except for when i changed from paper drop in to to k and n drop in

 

what im saying is- fill the tank, drive it around for a while and fill the tank again, but record how many gallons it took.

divide the number of miles you drove by the gallons of gas that were needed to fill the truck.
