I love my old 94 4.9L, but she is killing me on gas.
Sorry to be repetitive, but anyone have any ideas on getting better mpgs?
Thanks

 

First place to start is all the simple stuff. Check tire pressure, air filter, plugs, timing, and make sure everything is greased good like the wheel bearings and the rear end has some good oil in it. The easier it rolls the better gas mileage your gonna get.

 

hate to hijack a thread... but i got a 5.0 of that year with the ford 8.8 rear end... what oil do you change that with and whats the best way to go about doing it

 

thanks.
done the little stuff

looking into a cold air intake also
