i dunno...I'd still count on that engine providing pretty good gas mileage.

Just do a proper tune up when you swap and regular maintenance and the d15's will give great mpg til the day thtey die

No. I never said I didn't see your point. I was referring to your accusation about engine sludge.

I dont think that site is very accurate i looked up my car and it said 35mpg highway. I did a highway trip and when i got back i calc. my mpg and got 39mpg . That was also with a bad o2 sensor ( d16z6)
