: EGR Mod and MPG While TOWING skoryaro2 08-31-2004, 10:53 AM We need more input- pleasehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif Fingers 08-31-2004, 11:48 AM I don't know if many have had time to do any real towing yet to get these numbers. I know I haven't. Too early. Let the poll run a while, it will start to track. skoryaro2 08-31-2004, 12:07 PM OK - just wanted to give it a bump so everyone knew it was there.

This is her first run with this combo so today has been a little nerve racking.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Wacko.gif She climbed a pretty good grade outside of Chattanooga and the D/A took the 5ver up it without hesitation. Engine temp did climb to about 225, tranny held steady at 190. So far I am very impressed with the truck. I'll post mpg's likely on Tuesday.

But I don't recall anyone ever reporting reduced mileage problems. So how is it that this mod is expected to increase mileage? Fingers 09-01-2004, 11:55 PM Poorer milage has been the norm for CA cars for a while. | ||
