"Gassers rule" PLEASE. Im getting 34 to 36 mpg on the highway. I have 350 ft pounds of torque. I can and do run bio diesel. Im going to start making it in my garage. The per gallon price will work out to less than one dollar a gallon!
So you have to to a timing belt every 100,000 miles...
I left Phoenix bound for Seattle via the Grand Canyon, Bryce canyon and Zion. So far Im in Page AZ. The trip meter is reading 445 miles and Im still above half a tank!
Gotta love them CRD's.:winner_second_h4h:
For all of you CRD owners GDE (Green Diesel Engineering) has just released a new TCU (Transmission control unit) flash that really improves the shifting and general action of the 5 speed auto.
They also of course offer the best ECU flash as well.
