Stock Injectors

When running stock injecotr and #11 TST plate I enjoyed increase in pulling power and 18 to 19 mpg. Like everyone else I wanted to go for some more power I traded the #11 plate for the #10 TST plate again enjoyed the increase in power and still having good fuel mileage. Then I removed the stock injectors and installed the DDP 75Hp injectors and mpg went down even with normal driving. I ran the #10 plate and 75Hp injectors for a while but pulling temps and mph cause me to go back to the stock fuel plate. I guess I was hoping to see an increase of mpg. Now with the fuel change to meet the EPA requirements could this be apart of the cause in the decrease of fuel mileage summer and winter. Has anyone seen a decrease in the fuel mileage due to the rolling resistance of the tires even if they are 265x75.

I am thinking of having my stock injectors checked and re-installing them to see if my fuel mileage will increase.

Has anyone else experienced this and thought of doing the same thing?


BTW I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.
