    Fuel mileage

    What kind of fuel mileage are yall getting out of a mostly stock 02 sc/hd? My avg is around 13-14. Is this about right? Mods are filled silencer holes, beer can mod on the iac, oil seperator, and custom catback exhaust.

    Sounds about right. Stay out of boost or pull the SC belt off if you want better.

    You have some other issues going on then. I have a fully built truck with over 600 rwhp and I can get 300 miels out of full tank which is 12-13 mpg while still going out and having fun. Hwy I have gotten 400 miles out of a full tank.

    Has the truck been tuned before? Is it all stock? Do you have an oil seperator? When was the last time you cleaned the Intercooler? Is your AC working properly? Is your IC pump working properly? Has the fuel filter ever been changed? Are your plugs gapped properly and not fouled? Do you have a A/F gauge to see if your running rich?

    There are lots of things that can kill mpg.
