Gas Mileage

[keeprollling]

I am getting on about 8-9.99 MPG. I have a K&N cold air intake filter, but by no means is it cold air. I junked the air filter box, now its just sucking that hot under the hood air. I am thinking this has something to do with my poor mileage. I am using the E340 Spark plugs, an MSD6 box and an MSD Ford coil. I am now trying out hydrogen, I will let you guys know how that works out when I get back to town and fill up.

Does anyone know how the CO2 sensor work?

yea keep us posted but sorry i dont know how the co2 sensor works.

Ohh my bad, i did not realize i wrote CO2 sensor, I meant O2.

I think it is the sensor in the exhaust which adjust your air fuel mixture according to how your exhaust is.

since iv got my flowmasters i drove approx. 158 miles on half a tank which is about 12MPG once i get my truck tuned up it should improve more.

I have finally gotten the MSD kit on and the results are unbelievable! It was a MSD 6AL Box with their 8.5mm wires Blaster coil and MSD cap and rotor. I opted not to get the distributer. I finished it with some Autolite Platinum plugs. It has WAY more bottom end and Throttle response. I will put a step by step up soon and show the details.

 

[dhpt99]

Thats awsome and thanks every one for the input.

Last Month I bought a 1995 Eddie Bauer Edition with the 351 Windsor. The truck had 114,000 miles on it when I bought it. I put new spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap and rotor, along with a drop in K&N filter. It has 31x10.5x15 mud tires on it right now which will soon be replaced by a set of 265/75/15 A/T's, so it might pick up another mpg or so. I have run Lucas Injector cleaner through it on the first 3 tanks. Not sure what the mpg was before I bought it, but my first 3 tanks have average 16.65 mpg. From everything I seen/read on this site that is awesome. I'm happy with that.

Thanks for all your post ! Do any of you guys have a 302 in your bronco?

I have a 95 with the 302, 6" lift, 35" tires, and 4:56 gears. I'm getting around 9 mpg!
