That must have sucked.Ok so I can tell you what NOT to do, based on personal experience from the late 70's early 80's, I don't know for sure, I tried to forget but anyway, under no circumstances should you order a "fuel pressure regulator" from the JC Whitney Catalog and install it on your fathers F100 Ford PU that has been "given" to you to drive to high school during the week while he is out of town.
Regardless of how supposedly easy it is to cut the fuel line and install this miracle fuel pressure regulator, it will leak. Should you choose to do this despite my warnings, be prepared for any ass whipping that may come your way from said Father when he returns and has to replace the fuel line on "your" truck.
That must have sucked.
Georgia Cash for Clunkers
The Federal funds for clunker trade-ins to purchase a new car have been depleted.
Alan have owned two of these trucks ,tune up,high flow air filter,and getting a smaller truck is the only way to improve gas mileage,not trying to be a smart ass but 11/12 mpg is the best your going to get, these trucks are gas pigs, heavy and under powered even with the 5.9 not really good for daily commuting, I was a ASE cert and worked for dodge while ago,the thinner the tire/higher profile will help a bit as well,but if you have big tires and wheels ...good luck...BradLet me say first that i have very little knowledge of engines and mechanics. Having said that, i drive a 2001 dodge ram 2500 v8 (5.9 liter 360). This truck is the extra cab (not crew) and is 4x4. What, if anything, are some things that i can do to improve gas mileage and maybe horse power? I currently get about 9-10 miles to the gallon. Everything is stock parts at this point.
Thanks in advance,
alan
