At the moment, I get about 8-9 mpg. New plugs (old ones burned perfect, even after about 10 months), new plug wires (Thundervolt's) and new cap/rotor (MSD set). I used Lucas injector cleaner, new air filter and fuel filter (basicly a tune-up) in an attempt to improve this. The engine runs good, and I can't see it burning that much fuel; there's no obvious reason for the engine to need to, runs strong enough. The trans also has the same problem Broncosaurus! mentioned earlier; when the trans is cold, even with the motor warming up for 5-10 minutes, when I put it in drive, it won't move. Reverse, yes, but not forward. It also shifts hard, like it's slamming into gear almost. It jolts the truck whenever it does it; not every time, but most times when it shifts it does this.
After doing some thinking and research/price browsing, I realize I'm not sure if I'd need to get a C-6 that's made for 4x4, or if any C-6 with the right bellhousing will work, as the t-case will swap over. And what exactly is a shift kit?
And at what rpm does anyone else's C-6 shift at? Mine shifts into first around 1900-2700, almost randomly. I don't slam the gas, I don't "race" anyone off the line, and I'm easy on the brakes unless forced otherwise. And it has a new shift cable from the throttle body to the trans.
Any info would be awesome. Thanks.
