mpg improved by computer chip

My 01 is averaging 18 right now, but that's because my TOD system keeps kicking on. I just installed a TOD off switch tonight. It was pretty easy. Now hopefully I'll be seeing a little better MPGs...

If you're getting 9 mpg in town, your tires better be gigantic!

FWIW, without selectable front hubs, all the same parts are creating parasitic drag, wether the TOD system is powered up or not.

Oh, BTW...there is a TON of useless snake oil/borderline voodoo stuff on ebay, claiming to increase hp & mileage...http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_kw=chip+Isuzu

This is my personal favorite...http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLUE-2-5-to-...252ebd&vxp=mtr

While it is quite probable that it will decrease HP due to reduced flow & increased turbulrence, at least it might sound kinda like a turbo...

9 MPG is terrible. I still average 14-15 MPG with the 35s and a lot of added weight. Might be worth tuning it up and looking for issues.

It won't make much difference in MPG. Just slightly.
