Re: 14.7

I was getting a steady 15mpg all winter. Got 16.5 on the first tank of non winter gas. The last tank I got on it a few times and was back down to 15 again. Mine is all just going to work and back (8 miles each way) but its mostly on I-225 so the same as city driving, only get up to highways speeds for 2-3 miles.

I dont remember what gear ratio mine has. Its printed on one of the tags bolted to the rear axle housing cover, if your tags are still intact.

Btw, I have synthetic in engine, trans, xfer, and axles. Didnt see any gain in mileage. But then theres no point in having 205 hp if you dont use it right?

I'll be doing plugs and cleaning MAF in the near future so will see if mine improves any.
