Thread: Fuel mileage

Yeah I might do the E fans. Already dumped my spare tire too. Are those fuel chips legit?

Fuel chips? Hahahaha no, what they are is a waste of money. A programmer/tune might help if you have one customized for just economy.

Dude. Me and u have the same ride. My first motor 2v motor had 425 hp with no supercharger. U can do a lot. Just gonna pay lol. Sad truth. Land if the free and home if the expensive. Lol

I understand ha. Hey there's a reason those 5.3s get a little better fuel economy.. weaker!

Lmao

I try not to run low ever, but what the fuel light come on at? % of tank level? Some x gallons left? I have the larger tank 30 some gallon tank and i think something was always off with my fuel gauge. Usually 15-16 mpg mixed driving 2006 5.4. I get my mpg by running to 1/4 tank left and fill up. Usually get 20 gallons, around 300 miles.

Guess i have to run it down and see what it takes

I have the 27 gallon tank and the one time I ran it until the light came on I think it still only took like 23.5 gallons, so around 3-3.5 left or with my city mpg about 40 or so miles till empty.
