[Thread Backward] Re: Mileage/Power break-inMsg # 5110 of 8004 on Powerstroke Diesel Conference (1)To: Randyr, From: Jerry Time: Tuesday 01-27-98, 04:27 pm I've been waiting too, I was afraid I'd get yelled at. Last tank got 13 mpg, strictly around town, cold weather. Might have been a bad tank of fuel, usually get 15 mpg's under those conditions. Good to hear your'e doing well on fuel Randyr. Jerry.

I have a 97 250HD SC 4x4 4:10's E4OD, I -was one of the original "Bad Mileage" posters about -two months ago. I was getting 12-13 MPG with 900 -miles on the engine. I was told by a number of -people that it was not broke in until up to around -14,000 to 20,000 miles. I now have almost 4000 -miles and am pleased with the mileage. I just put 4 -gals. in a totaly dry tank, ran it on cruise -control on the freeway, flat and level at sea level -at 2000 RPM's which is 63-64 MPH and only a few -blocks in city driving and got 21 MPG. My average -with stop and go driving is around 17.5-18.5. All -the Diesel around here is straight #2, and I don't -use any additives. I hope to get upwards to 19 by -the time it breaks in.
