Hi All, Just changing mail delivery for all of my lists. We were in Canada for a few days which brings me to the fuel question. We have a 2003 Grand Caravan Sport all wheel drive 3.8l. When we first purchased it we were getting 13 mpg city and 18 highway. After 1,500 miles I switched to Mobil one and the gas mileage had an improvement to 15 and 21 respectively. At 40,000 miles I switched to the oil supplied by Chrysler because it is free as opposed to the $6.50 a quart for the Mobil one and I was considering trading in the van. The gas mileage dropped to 12.5 city and about 15 highway. This is using 87 octane and only Gulf, Getty or Gas Way non of which use ethanol. Just for a test I filled up with 89 octane and had a significant mileage improvement. The highway mileage is the best I have ever had with 22.4 mpg average and 16.2 city. The owners manual states 87 octane. Will I do any damage by running the 89? For the slight cost of 10ยข a gallon more the mileage increase is significant. Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources. http://www.geocities.com/lenny_mchugh/ Lenny
