tooter's next manifold adventure...

[dragoonmc]

Hey all,
So my install of this spacer was on an auto trans.
I found that it actually hurt my mileage even after it re learned its stuff.
I had about a 2 mpg drop from last summer so i took it off and the mpg came back up to match last year

Do you realize that the spacer can't alter your air/fuel ratio?

It just makes the intake runners longer. So it's obvious that there is something else going on besides the spacer.

But if you're not satisfied and feel that it is to blame for your gas mileage, simply return it undamaged with its gasket and all of the hardware and I'll refund your money.

Toot - you may want to remove your address for privacy reasons. Just trying to look out for the well being of forum members. Everyone on here might be a good person, but outside of YW, you don't know what scammers might try to do. You might want to edit your post (i removed the address from the quote I am posting) and PM it to the user it was intended for.

Thanks for your concern.

I've been posting my name and address for years and have never had any problems being a public business . No one can scam me anyways.

Were there any gaps between the spacer and the manifold and/or head?

That would very likely cause the ECU to throw a code.

I know this by personal experience because at the time I installed the prototype, the new gaskets hadn't come in yet. I was really anxious to run it and used an old gasket that was laying around. It triggered a fuel trim code because it leaked.

There's something else going on that we don't know about. But I won't argue with the guy. If he's not happy with his gas mileage and feels the spacer is the cause, he gets his money back.
