My blazer has only been getting 9 mpg in city driving. My 76 silverado also gets 9mg in city driving both have 350's in them. Well i didnt realize it but I have been buying a 89 octain fuel with 10% ethanol mix. I switched to 87 octane straight gasoline and my mileage has jumped up to 13 mpg city driving in the blazer. Havent tried it in the truck yet but I am sure it will be the same. I am guessing if I went with a highter octane straight gas blend gas mileage would go up even more. So just a thought if others are having issues with their gas mileage.
yep citgo/caseys general store is where I usually buy gas cause they are close to my house. There is a shell nearby also but its on the wrong side of the street to get back on the road without waiting forever for traffic to clear up.
what's that baby LT1 run in the 1/4 Dragon? got any pics?
I may be completely wrong in throwing this in the mix, but when I removed the glovebox out of 74 cab I stripped out, I found a sticker that says the truck requires a 91 octane minimum to keep from knocking!
