Re: Gas Mileage Log


Mike=> Now how does one accurately do this without emptying the tank? 

Start with a full tank. Note the odometer reading. Next time you fill up 
-- *always* fill up -- note the odometer reading again and the amount of 
fuel you put in. Subtract the first odometer reading from the second. 
Divide the result by units of fuel used to find distance per fuel unit.

I keep a running pile of fuel receipts with odometer readings written on 
them, periodically totting them up to track average mileage, watch for 
better fuel sources and monitor performance.

=> I dont have the 2 and 4 heaterboxes. What does this mean? 

It means you have about two-thirds the stock capacity for cabin heat, 
and no way to improve this without replacing your entire exhaust system.
