Gumout Regain FI/carb cleaner. $5. Salesman told me he got a extre 6 mpg on his Chevy 3/4 ton. Guess I'll try it, usually put some in once a month any way. Put in a bottle a day or 2 before my fill up. I usually get 32 mpg. Filled up and that tank figured to be 30-31 mpg. Ran the stuff thru and this tank figured out to 36 mpg. Wow havent had that in years!  Shocked No change in driving. 2 up, 65-75 mph. Wont know the second tank till we get on the road Tue night.

Hmm.  I'll give it a shot and let you know my results.

Past few years I get 32 mpg and 30 as we travel. After the cleaner I was getting 36 mpg. During this trip, 2 up, loaded bags, hitch rack with rain gear & helmets, 21" roller luggage in bike rack with leathers on top, 75-85 mph (3500-4000 rpms) I am still getting 34 mpg. I'm sold on the stuff.  cooldude
