Normaly I get around 283 miles on my trip counter, and don`t give it a second thought. This time I got 348. That is a healthy jump. I did do one thing differant, I used redline fuel additive, but I used it two tanks ago. I was expecting to see a deferance last tank, but it stayed the same. This tank it jumped up, now it averaged out to around 28 mpg. I run like a rabbit! While in town I keep the car in D-4 locked in. I was pleasently surprised. I use only American high test, to tell you the truth, I wasn`t expecting to see any differance.

I figure I would share this with you all!

What exactly does the Redline Fuel Additive do?

Well, wouldn't this also depend on how much gas you used? IMO, the trip meter doesn't mean anything -- just how many gallons of gas you put in. I mean, if you got 283 miles out of 10 gallons on the last tank, and got 348 out of 13 gallons this time, then the fuel additive didn't do much.

I refuse to put any kind of fuel additives in any of my cars. If it sounds too good to be true (such as claiming over 5 mpg increase) then it usually is.

i only get about 230 miles out of a full tank in my 03 TL-S. i use premium fuel only in city driving. wtf...

It figured out to be 28.3~ +-- some. Not bad for city. Now to see if stays there! I`m very selective in what goes in my TLs.

Mr Zipps

230 is not bad for only city....

I was getting about 300 95% highway....

It all depends on how heavy your foot is also....

First tank of gas I got 19 dead on and was disappointed, but resolved that it was brand spankin new and would get better. On my second tank now, only 1/4 way down and already better. I hope it keeps going up.

when i drove to florida staright highway miles (1300) to be exact i was getting almost 370 miles on a full tank.

i get about 290 for 13 gallons in my 00TL. aroudn 22mpg, mixed highway and city driving..

i think it should be a little higher. But even on the highway i don't get 28mpg... i don't accelerate that hard either..

I get about 250-290 on 13 gallons in city/highway combo. If city driving only, it dips down to very low 200-mile range.

Then again, I have a very heavy foot, so that's not bad. I once really took it easy on a tank (God, it was so hard not to peg the go-pedal.. my foot was itching) and got nearly 250 in city only. Quite a difference from 200.

okay well I just passed 10 000 km on my car, which is supposedly the standard break in period for most cars. Anyways, as soon as I passed 10k, I noticed my gas mileage go from 350km per tank up to 470km tank...when you think about it, that's almost 30% up...so I mean, if you just finished your break in period, that could be it....

also depends sometimes what type of gas you use.
