Re: Read Something Interesting
Guys! What about letting your rig warm up longer (i.e. Idleing)? What about not being able to stay at a good MPH and RPM for optimum mileage?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but in diesels don't we want dense air for optimum horsepower/torque with a given fuel charge? Therefore, if we are getting more horespower/torque with a given fuel charge we give it LESS fuel to achieve the same road speeds. So technically wouldn't dense air give us better mileage?
