Yeah I seem to be driving with my foot to the floor continuously not really accelerating like I used to...

I half thought it could be that they have watered down the fuel in the summer compared to winter!!

I just ordered some of my favourite fuel additives from evil bay as well.. Does seem to give a bit more power..

Really busy with work over the next few weeks and not sure when I will get around to do oil change...

That was on my previous van :) one I have now I've not actually run MPG tests yet. Will try and do that at some point soon :)

Both vans are identical by the way.. just my older van was one year older..

Are you going to do the mod on this one?

Not sure your MPG will be anything half decent with an air filter like that...

Poor engine must be wheezing like a good un!!!
