You cannot get 3 tanks of data without using the headlights or blinkers (I know some people never use their blinkers but I always do) so the usual testing method cannot apply. Nor can you ride down the road with the hood up and with a stupid friend sitting in the engine bay with a voltmeter hooked to the battery. The best possible test that can be performed is with an SGII and that is what I did for you despite your antagonistic and manner-less attitude. I have gone out of my way for you and now I am done with you.

I don't know, since this is a thread about the heater...I think I could go long enough w/o using the heater if I was compulsive geek enough about it. BUT since your last posting was about the use of the radio I know that it's the ONE electrical load that certainly could be switched off long enough to run 6 tests. You say it causes extra fuel consumption, prove it expert. Is that too much to ask in a fuel economy forum that's based on so much testing and results? ![]() And to get my quote right, I didn't mention a thing about testing headlights and blinkers... "I need mileage logs for 3 tanks, using the radio, and 3 logs without the use of the radio, or your findings are meaningless" Bye, BailOut
