M.P.G,s
« on: 05 September 2010, 23:27:35 »
my td has never had a good mpg,s, but since doing a fuel filter change a few days ago its gone from 28.4 to 36.7mpg. from becoming an oof member about 18mth,s ago i,ve regulary changed it, along with diesel magic each time. The only difference this time is i bought a genuine GM filter. i wondered if other td guys have experienced similiar.

The Bible makes more sense than your post.

How can a Fuel Filter increase MPG by that amount? Especially if you have changed it 'reguarly' in 18months.

i,m aware it sounds stupid the ones i,ve been using go by the trade name "WIX". all i know is what the display is telling me. also when the engine is just on tickover its not missing as its done in the past.  :-/
