| Well... I would unplug the battery for 15 minutes so everything is reset. I have found I get the best MPG with Shell or Exxon. On a few occasions when I was running on fumes, I put cheap gas in and lost over 1.5 mpg. After running the cheap-o gas, it took about 2 fill ups for the truck to get back to its jumpy self. Meaning it took less gas to get it going. What I like about Shell is the additives they use to clean the gunk out. Not sure what Exxon uses though. I rememeber putting in 91 octane, ran great, however as I started to put 87 back in took awhile for the computer to re-adjust. Bottomline, I dont care about the nay sayers, theres a difference in gas. It might come from the same refinery but the additives make all the difference.

| Octane has nothing to do with mileage. Octane is a numerical number to indicate the speed the fuel burns at. Higher octane fuel burns slower. Slower burning fuels produce LESS power unless there is a reason they are burning slower. If the motor is not spark knocking (which is what higher octane fuel prevents), then putting higher octane fuel in it is going to do nothing but deplete your wallet faster. |
