GESS WHAT I'M WRONG I was looking at something els and got my numbers mixed up. So that said What in that TSB 18-005-06 is going to increase my milage? I also see the TSB from Geno's is only late 05. One on TDR has till mid 06. kind of confusing.

well they just put a band new computer in it like 3 months ago because when i first bought it it left me on the side of the road cause of an injector but the put a computer in it before they relized it was an injector. so it should have the new flash then? maybe i should just go there and ask them why this thing drinks fuel. taking it back to stock and the BD off wont help right?

ok, pull the bully dog off and return the truck to stock. go to the dealer and tell them "my truck is getting very poor fuel mileage, can you flash with computer with the latest available flash"

new computer dosent mean it has the latest flash.

also what happened with the injector?

I havent had a chance to check my mpg's, but i've noticed that I manage to get 460 miles per tank. That's running it until the fuel light goes on. I'll keep a closer eye on it to see what I'm running.
