Diesel just hit $3.60 and above here. I need to make a good milage tune, any suggestions? Low pulse, low fuel, and high timing? What is everyone runing? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

consider yourself luckey, out here diesel is on avg 3.75 but i have a couple stations near me at 4.35......
I'd offer help but I cant seem to get more then 11 anymore. Tuned, stock, loaded, unloaded all net about 11mpg. It is getting worse as time goes by and I cant figure out the problem. Timing is about the biggest help to mileage.
I'm hoping it doesn't get up to 5$ a gallon this summer! I don't own a gas vehicle. My wife drives a lbz.
That sucks man. Hope you get it figured out!
Do you recommend leaving stock fuel tables and pulse width? And add timing?
What engine? I know for my LB7, I have found that I modify ALOT of tables for my milage tune. Timing and rail pressure are the 2 biggies as well as throtrtle base injection quantity coming in 3rd for LB7 milage tuning. I can get 20 out of my BURB pretty easily when I lay off the go pedal.
Seems like a little extra fuel pressure and a little extra timing will give slightly more economy. Obviously if the truck starts rattling you have gone too far, hard to find that happy medium really. I have played with mine and seen as high as 25 on the highway, but that was keeping it at 65 and accelerating easy... driving habits of course plays the biggest role. Make sure your tires are aired up hard too.
Thanks for the help. I'll see what I can come up with. Im running 50 psi front and 45psi back in my 35" nitto mud grapplers. I'll post what I get out of it. Thanks
Its going to be hard to get very good mileage out of mud grapplers, the space between the tread cleets makes for a lot of rolling fricton.
