Mileage Increase with TST PM3
FYI - I want to correct statements I have made in the past about never seeing a mileage increase from any Bombs I've added.
After recently replacing my VP-44, I have been easing it up to full power... based on some members theorys that the Inj. Pump might benefit from gradual exposure to extended injection cycles and heavier fueling.
I went the first 1/2 tank with my TST box off and my fuel mileage dropped 1.5 mpg. Filled up, turned the box on, set it to #1 first day, #2 second day, etc.... up to #9 (full power). Mileage came back to where it had been previously - 17.5 mpg with normal daily driving.
I can only assume that I could not keep my foot away from enjoying the box when it was new - 2 yrs ago, and did not see the mileage increase back then. I surely did notice it this time!
