  When Jake started running Stanadyne he ran the figures.  The increase 
in mileage offset the cost of the Stanadyne.  This was at case price from 
dieselpage.com.  The rest of the bennefits were just gravy.  :)  I came up 
with similar numbers on 2 cycle oil but I didn't see the added mileage 
that he did.  Of course my Jetta is pretty persistent to maintain between 
36 and 39mpg no matter what I do, unless it's winter and idle a lot, then 
it'll go down more.
