Top 4 Ways to Maintain Your Truck’s Fuel Efficiency

As gas prices continue to climb with no apparent end in sight, everyone wants to get the most mileage possible between fill-ups. After all, no one has money to just throw away. If you are searching for ways to get the most out of every tank, then look no further than these top 5 ways to maintain your truck’s fuel efficiency.

 

Check and Upgrade Your Manifolds

If your manifolds are leaking, faulty, or have become warped, they will start consuming fuel at a much faster rate. If you find that you are getting less mileage than you used to, take a look under your hood. If you spot soot or exhaust leakage, this is a sign of manifold trouble. To correct this and get your fuel economy back to where it should be, you will need to perform maintenance or even replace the manifolds.

Manifolds from BD Diesel are made from high silicon ductile iron, allowing them to withstand even the most extreme temperatures without cracking. Specially designed to provide maximum flow, BD’s manifolds provide increased thermal efficiency and a quicker spool, resulting in more efficient use of fuel.

 

Check and Upgrade or Replace Your Fuel Injectors

If you aren’t maintaining your fuel injectors, your truck won’t run at peak efficiency. With a faulty fuel injector, you will notice greater fuel consumption and other potential signs such as rough idling, dirty emissions, or white smoke. Any of these symptoms can indicate the need to upgrade your fuel injectors.

Available in a variety of classifications for all your needs, BD Diesel fuel injectors are not only shot-to-shot tested, but they are also built to a higher standard than OEM to provide you with maximum value.

 

Replace worn out turbo or failed VGT Acutator  

If you want to get more miles to the gallon while also adding a big dose of fun to your ride, then BD’s screamer turbos are for you. By providing a cooler, denser charge, they improve combustion efficiency and fuel economy. Built in-house, they are high-speed VSR balanced and available in Powerstroke, Cummins, and Duramax models.

 

Install a TSBooster With Eco Mode

When it comes to daily driving, a TSBooster with Eco mode is your best bet. As much as everyone loves feeling the awesome power of their diesels, sometimes less is more.

With all the benefits of a TSBooster, including a throttle boost ranging from 50-300% and a security mode, the TSBooster with Eco mode is perfect for daily driving. It gets you from A to B safely without overworking your engine, reducing your throttle by 25% and increasing your fuel efficiency.

Although the price of gas is out of your control, there are measures you can take to make your truck more fuel-efficient and minimize the impact on your bank account.
