My main purpose in this was a test of before and after
with new injectors. Once upon a time I got that type
of fuel mileage. Now 2 of my injector spray patterns
are pretty bad and 1 drips. They are NOT dirty.
They've had so much Jectron and Techron, you can eat
off them (and the combustion chambers). I just think
age, mileage, etc. have taken their toll on the
internals of the injectors. So I now have some new
ones from Kristian at VM. I'll be making this same
500 mile trip later so I can compare fuel mileage
under the same conditions.
