 Subject: Amsoil MPG report
IP: Logged
Message:
After changing to Amsoil in the crank case, and the front & rear differential I thought I'd give you my mileage report. Now this is my first gas fill up after the change and it is only 384.3 miles.
MPG improvement 1.456 or 7.86% mpg improvement from 18.52 to 19.973 - the 18.52 is what I recoded as the MPG for December 2003 - highway miles. I think the comparrison between the time periods is fair. All I added from last year is a heat shield around the cold air intake.
Since this isn't a long period of time and only 1 fill up I increased the gas used from 19.973 to 20.473 and the MPG improvement is still .949 mpg improvement or 5.13% increase.
Not too bad - I'll keep tracking it.

Thanks Dex for the report!
I hear the following question often:
Will using AMSOIL Motor Oils increase gas mileage?
Tighter government regulations and increases in engine manufacturers’ demands are calling for more fuel efficient lubricants. AMSOIL Motor Oils reduce friction and drag better than petroleum oils, resulting in significant fuel economy increases. In a recent 1.2 million mile demonstration, AMSOIL Lubricants showed a 4.5% increase in gas mileage. Other tests have shown increases of as much as 15% under certain weather and driving conditions. Yet, because every vehicle is different, as are driving habits and conditions, it is difficult to accurately project an exact increase.
