Fuel Experiment Update: Shell Regular
So last week I filled up with Shell regular gas after getting 12mpg with ARCO premium. When I filled up today with Shell again, I discovered that my mileage had gone up to nearly 12.5mpg. I’m making progress in the right direction, at least! I’m hoping I can get it up to 13mpg in the short run, and even higher down the road.
Going forward, I think I’m going to try keeping the fuel above half a tank to see if that improves things any. I’m pretty sure my carb needs some tweaking too, which would help mileage, but I kind of just want to upgrade to a 4bbl Edelbrock or something rather than mess with mine. Anyway, that’s a bit far off at this point. Wish me luck!
