BETTER Fuel Mileage for me
Hey fellow PT's, I've had my PT GT for almost 2 years now. It's an 03 stone white color and all stock and NO Stage 1. I have been getting in the Ocala Florida area, just driving around and into town and some freeway. My fuel mileage has ALWAYS been around 20 to 21 MPG faithfully. I have used Mobile 1 10/30 since it was new, I've had the turbo replaced at 28,000 miles under warranty from Dealer, (Bearing went bad, had to wait for a week to replace turbo). Still the same mileage, never has changed until NOW. This is what happen and I don't know why or care, I changed oil about a month ago to the NEW Mobile 1 10/30 15,000 mile oil. Bought it at Walmart, 5 Qt's for $23.?. Put the same Fram tough guard oil filter and the same type driving and NOW I'M GETTING ALMOST 25 MPG and it's been 3 tankfuls. Drive about 290 miles on 12 gals of high test fuel. I get the gas at RACETRACK here in town and if you guys really knew the truth about gasolines, it doesn't matter where you get it. Same base high test fuel just different NAME BRAND STATION additives and I'm not going there. But the point is I'm getting almost 25 MPG and the same driving habits, some WOT and spanking a few ricers with coffee can mufflers now and then. Just thought I would let you guys know and I'm criusing better now [?]
