Re: Timing & Gas Milage
At the level of detail you are working, I would wait til you had 5k miles or more on the engine. I would be concerned that your motor is "tight" causing part of your gas mileage issue. The other items that will affect gas milage:
-what is the diameter of your tires? -does your starter turn slower when the engine is hot vs cold start? (ie engine is tight) -do you have excessive "slippage" of your torque converter (assuming it is a non lock up?) |

Sorry, I cannot say either way - need to find out what wideband means. Noted, though sounds complicated! I need to print that out, read over it to insure I understand what you have suggested. Personally, I have all the time in the word to try things out at least once! Though to remember @cj847 comment, perhaps I need to let it break in a bit more...
