Fuel Atomizer Installed And Happy #313699 09/10/03 02:08 AM

I installed my fuel atomizer this past weekend and took a trip up to Savannah (about 280 miles). If your familiar with it, you have to adjust a fuel control lever to optimize the mileage. Ever since my lift, tires, and regear I have been getting around 14.5 - 15 mpg in both city and highway (around 70-75mph). On my first run I got 16.5mpg with the atomizer and readjusted it. I guess I had opened it a little too far because I only got 15mpg, but on my last run I got 20mpg! This is more than I expected and still have some adjusting to do. I know this has been brought up a few times and just wanted to let my results be known.

SPECTACULAR!!!
I'm glad to hear more positive feedback about the unit. I've been consistently achieving 21 MPG with a combination of city and highway driving. I regularly achieve 27 MPG on the highway.

If you are interested in one, let me know. I have a post up in the Vendor section here.
