[Vwdiesel] Better mileage?

[LBaird119 at aol.com]

IMHO   you do not need a degunk   ------- you need a Hillbilly tuning job 
----
for economy.    -------- Run her super lean.   ---- yes performance as far as
acceleration will be less --- but when you show the wife the benefit to 
mankind
and the Sears balance ------ she will brag about it to the hens at the coffee 
shop.

PS: Oh yes don't forget to install a brand new set of nozzles. (and thank

  No prob.  Too many people try to extend the life of an injector or nozzle 
and it's just not worth it.
  I've found that INCREASING fueling has helped mileage.  My Dasher 
made a mile or two better when the turbo was simply bolted on.  That's 
"lean".  Then I got it and made the same mileage as the PO.  I turned 
the pump WAY up, got some power, performance and high EGT out of it.
It was FUN!!!  I gained an additional mile or two to the gallon.  I've 
cranked 
the snot out of Dad's pu and the Jetta and can't say I've gotten an increase 
in mileage but there's been no decrease.  I just don't have time to be 
as anal about it as I used to.  ;-)  Acceleration means more with the local 
traffic than a mile or two/gallon lately and I don't seem to be sacrificing 
that 
even.  :)
