Re: 6 liter and ULSD - interesting observation

Unless you fill your tank all the way to the top of the filler spout and stand there for 10 minutes clickin off/on while the foam settles, you will never get an accurate reading. My dad has that mpg gauge in his truck and its not very accurate. My truck is an XLT and doesnt.

I've got it down to about 3 minutes. In winter time the foam settles a little quicker then in the summer time. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I've noticed a slight drop. My fuel average before ULSD was a solid 16 mpg. Now it around 15.8 mpg.
