Truck is running pretty good. Still low idle from time to time. Mpg's suck especially when cold engine. Thinking about injector replacement...

Truck is running pretty good. Still low idle at times. This is the first full tank since Sept. MPG's will be poor I expect.

Truck is running great. I changed the oil a month or so ago and put in 0w-40 + 15oz. CeraTec and 12oz. Camguard. It seems like the mpg's are better and the truck is running smooth. No issues right now.

330,000 miles. Oil and filter change today. Put in the Mobil 1 0w-40 to see how that goes (5 qts.). Seems just fine. Also added 15oz. CeraTec and 12 oz. Camguard for just shy of 6 qts. total. Also tightened up the hose clamps on the upper radiator hose as it had a small weep and seemed a bit loose. Seems good now.

Truck runs good but idle is still erratic. And mpg's - especially when cold, is horrible. Still thinking DFCO is not working right but yesterday it did show 99999 for the first time in a long time. May try Scott's to see if they can find anything out. Also, may put the stock air filter back on. Intend to change oil to 0w-40 at 230k - after the next tank of fuel.

Truck is running well. This is a top-up just to use up a fiver. Poor mpg's on winter gas, city drives, cold temps.

Truck is running good and the idle has been normal for the last few months. The DFCO still doesn't seem to activate. No issues otherwise with the truck to report. This fill I put in a full can of Sea Foam.

Poor mpg's - mostly city and trailer towing. rock and branches. Worst mpg's when truck is cold and usual when hot. Dfco seems lame by scanguage standards - doesn't go to 99999. Otherwise, truck runs good.

Mpg's are bad but truck is running good. Especially poor mpg's when cold. Fairly normal when hot. Had FCFCR change trans fluid, both diffs, transfer case, and lube driveshaft. The passenger door sticks unless the latch is pulled all the way. Annoying but it still works.

Truck is running good but mpg's seems to be sucking. Mostly local with trailer, no doubt. The idle has been good this winter.

Truck is running well, but mpg's seem not so great. Maybe because of town / trailer driving. Did the circuit a couple of weeks ago and total was ~23.5mpg. I'll take that. I think town and cold driving just gives very poor mpg's. Small bottle in this fill.

Truck is running good. Idle seems consistently normal now. Use is mostly around town and with trailer so mpg's suffer. Put in a can of the SeaFoam HM this tank.

Very short tank so mpg's iffy. My high/low idle is back. Time for plenum gaskets. Otherwise, truck running good.

Truck is running good. The low idle is back occasionally. Alternator quit last Sunday so I swapped it out with another from Advance under the life warranty. They also tested my 6yo AGM battery and it checked out good. This fuel up I put in a bottle of the WM Super Tech injector cleaner. This last tank had 44k in it.

The truck is running good. Possible flat spot in tires when cold so I put them up to 32psi from 28 (they were at 26). Haven't been driving it much. I added a can of 44k to this tank. No current issues with truck that I am aware of.

Truck is running good. This tank has some trailering and mostly around town. Truck is loaded up now with camper for the FCT, leave on Sun. Anxious to see how the trip goes with the new intake.

Truck is running good. This tank included retrieving jeep on Storm Mt, pulling jeep to LL for the RMNP trip, a trip with the trailer, and very little highway driving. So mpg's may look bleak.

Truck is running very good. Idle seems good. There had been a small carbon build up at one corner under the plenum gasket. Maybe that let air in??? Drove the circuit on Wed. and got 25.3 mpg. Best ever and it has usually been ~22mpg. So far, so good. The new intake seems to work very well. A bit noisier under hard acceleration.

Had truck in shop yesterday due to fuel leak. Leaked a fair bit of fuel this tank so poor mpg's. Broken injector on #4. R&R with the OE used injector and new plenum gaskets. Also, I installed the new air intake and NGK Ruthenium plugs. Haven't driven it yet. Will update this soon.

These miles are approximate as I had to disconnect power b4 the last 20 miles. Last weekend I installed all new injectors and a new fuel pressure regulator. One of the new injectors was bad (#4) so I put an old one back in. Had to do the job twice. Waiting on the new one so will be doing it all again. It threw the P0304 code which means a misfire on cyl #4. The injector measured 196+- Ohms whereas it should be 12-16. Just drove up to RFL and back - 23.9 mpgs average for the trip. The high/low idle seems better. Was it the press. reg??? When I do the new injector, I may check out the plugs and the "starter" mechanism adjustment. Truck is running good!

Truck is running good. High idle hasn't been an issue this tank. I put the Fia grill screen on for the winter.
