    Fuel consumption and top speed

    My only reason for the concern about the mileage was it was disappearing way faster than it should have been, according to what others were saying. You have to have some idea how far you can go on the amount of fuel you have available and things weren’t adding up. It would be just plain stupid...

    Fuel consumption and top speed

    Got the fuel issue straightened out today. Now I’m drawing from and returning to the left tank. Took it for about a 15 mile drive and the fuel level only dropped less than an inch. Major improvement.

    Fuel consumption and top speed

    Something just doesn’t seem right about this Cummins. I know it’s not going to get ggreat mileage but this one seems overly excessive.
