I didn't have to do a thing. As soon as the local weather went from extreme sub-zero to above freezing temps my gas milage went from 9-11MPG to 19-20MPG over the same routes. Evidently the open loop tables really richen the mixture in cold weather.

9- 11 MPG.. DAYUM! That's like my 94 Eldo pre-tuneup and heavy footing in NYC. Congrats, however I take it this will only last a few months..:bonkers:

It should last until the first of November.
Cold engines like a rich mix, hot engines like a lean mix. At those extreme subzero temps the engine probably took forever to reach operating temps.

About a mile at -30F; 2 miles at -45F.

v8 + $4 / gallon = Not Good.
$3.19/gal not good either.
