I bought fuel yesterday for the first time since January.
I'd driven approx 40 miles before stopping for fuel and upon starting back out on the road I immediately noticed a marked difference in performace.
Before buying fuel I'd been running along at around 2,200 RPM --- a nice conservative cruise speed but after fueling I happened to look down and notice I was running @2,500. There was a marked difference in the way the truck performed after fueling. I should note that my fuel compensator has been by-passed.
The fuel bought back in December, being a winter blend probably contained at least 50% number-one diesel. Wow --- what a difference 100% number-two diesel makes.
I'm glad I didn't check my mileage with the winter blend as I think it would have been depressing.
