Mackin 11-17-2003, 09:35 PM Pretty much ,perhaps some additional additives depending on brand .... I see a drop of 1 to 2 miles in lose in fuel econo ..... It's the price that pisses me off ....

Coghlin 11-19-2003, 12:05 PM I hate the winter. Price of fuel goes up and the power and mpg goes way down. Edited by: Coghlin ISurvivedNMU 11-19-2003, 12:22 PM I don't know if the winter blend has caused this, or if its the warm up time... But I have lost about 2.5 mpg over the last month and a half.... Its hard to beleive just antigel would have an effect on milage... But the warm up time may have a dramatic effect... And I am sure #1 would lowwer fuel milage bad..
