RE: Gas mileage/ '90/200 QT
Be careful when using the computer readout for MPG's... they are not
always (or often?) reliable, e.g. our '86 5kS reads ~50% high... "gee,
we're git'n 42 miles per gallon!! Must be runnin' a bit lean!" Figure
your mileage the old-fashioned way - miles driven / gallons used - over
three tanks or so, and see if maybe your actual MPG's aren't better than
the 13-14 the comp. reports.
BTW, is there any way to calibrate the computer so that it reads
something close to reality?
