    I just thought it would be beneficial for someone to write a Tech Article on how to get better gas mileage from the 200 and 250 six engines. Reason I suggest this is because I've noticed some new users to the forum keep asking how to get better mileage from these engines and the people asking this seem to be new owners to an old car.

    I would think a simple Google search would yield tons of info on the subject.

    Every time I try to hit up Google it just feels like :banghead:. I guess I can't find the right way to phrase it or something. I'd LOVE to see a tech article too. Paul sent me a guide a little while ago. I should probably post it if I can find it again. I feel like I have a basic idea what can be done but there are a few things I get fuzzy on.
