Overinflated tires to 115 psi?
Sometimes thumping tire and still didn't know I had a flat until I put a air gauge on it.
I have a pyro it runs 7-8 on a hill never over 850 my boost I watch constantly and try to keep it under 10 going down the road it will give me 40 psi on a good pull. I have a shimmed pump and I get 45-47 lbs oil at 1500 my oil temp runs 215 running on flatland and I can go to 235-240 on a hill. I do most shifts at 1600 and cruise at 1450-1500. I have verry little idle time APU. I am in a prostar with a high sleeper and full fairings. It has been a year since the engine work and 100k. I have cat eyes on trailer and drives I run 120 in all my tires. I recently changed my CAC and all boots on the hot side, new air filter, crankcase filter, and I had to remove the ifsm to do a primer pump because the heads of one bolt was stripped out.whal it was out I was amazed at how clean the intake was. I recently had a oil sample done and it was verry clean I have no blow by and I loose mabe 1 gallon of oil in 15k.
I don't know what I'm missing because I was getting a constant 7.5+ before and if anything my driving habits have improved to try and get my milage up.....
