Cam Tuning Question (gas mileage)
Yea i know what a dumb question, but i need to ask it. I jsut recently got my cam installed, yes full tune, but needs more tune work. stay tuned for details. So i filled up the tank. Keep in mind it has been cold here in chi-town and even if i were to nail the car i would get no traction what so ever. Anyways, at about little over half tank i was at 100 miles. Now again i have not gone past 3K RPMs.... Before my cam, at half tank i would be at 150. What is the deal?
Ok back to why my car needs tuning. My car is going back in this monday. here is why. My car's idle is set at 1000 RPMs. I am going to request that it be set at 800-900. the decater (sp) rate is a little messed up too. Approaching a stop light/sign, i take the car outta gear and the RPMs rev up to 2000 - 2300 RPMs sit there intil i depress the clutch or until the motor itslef slows down. And at around 1500 - 1800 RPMs my car bucks, prolly b/c i need a gear. damn 3.42 (M6)
but that is why i think my gas mileage could suck b/c i need more tunning??
Any ideas???
Thanks
numbers are in sig
