madza teck Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) I've bought a 02 Z71, 5.3 200k miles with a extended cab. The dash told me it was getting 15 mpg when I bought it. I replaced the fuel filter, plugs, wires, air filter, gave her a LOF, replaced the rear differential fluid, I then did a fluid exchange on the transmission using a BG machine. Using a motto vac. I did a induction service. Put some new tiers on her and now I'm getting 21/ so I'm wondering what kinda MPG you guys are getting?
