300 miles to tank with my 86 f250 5speed with granny gear no overdrive I have a plow and I 300k still running
@NITRO-TURTLE2 күн бұрын
Had an 85er, 300-6, single barrel electric throttle body, 5 speed. If I kept it under 60, empty bed, I could see 30mpg most times. Loaded, would get down in the 10 -12 range. Bullet proof though. A guy I knew took it off my hands, he ran it until the frame snapped, around 750,000 miles.

I don't know what you use the truck for so I was wondering what it's like if you come to a really steep hill either pulling a trailer or with a heavy load. Also wondered what the engine's like when it's really cold? Would it struggle if you had to pull away up a really steep hill?
@InternalCombustionGarage3 ай бұрын
@@robinprice4877 the I6 is a fairly capable engine but definitely has its limits. Mine has 2:75 gears and it’s a short box so it’s not much of a towing rig. I towed about 2800 pounds with it about a month ago and it did ok but not great. Didn’t like the hills much. A set of 4:10 gears would help it out but then I’d have a hard time just cruising at 65 and it’d completely kill the gas mileage.
