[Vwdiesel] Too many damn variables

I'm on my second Eco-diesel and the best I've seen is 45mpg US (in the
spring and fall)... Usually low 40s, slightly less in winter. I've heard
from others that get pretty much the same - little bigger, few more
peripherals hanging on the engine; makes it tough to catch Rabbits / Golfs
in mileage...

Not to confuse the issue any more than necessary, but Wow, I forgot to
mention one HUGE variable, that will make it damn near impossible for us to
really know where we stand on our tuning issues (if we're using mileage as a
guide). The Quality of the Diesel Fuel.
For all I know, my engine is tuned to as optimal a state as it can be, but
it's this Kalifornia fuel that's got me!! A friend of mine (who has had a
little datsun diesel pickup truck for a long, long time) said he noticed a
big difference in his mileage after they reformulated the fuel around here.
And it didn't get better. Doug
