Installed Denzo 24's and I think my gas milage has dropped. Is this possible? I will be pulling the plugs to see if they fowled over time. Just currious if its a possible answer or is my foot just getting heavier?

Oh yea.........I also gapped them above the .44 but below the .50.

I'm surprised nobody else has responded to this as there are far more technically savy people around here but yes, technically _may_ affect mileage, but so many other factors are far more likely to affect it including your lead foot!

But seriously, you'd have to accurately measure a couple tankfuls of exactly matching conditions to relate that to the plugs and not everything from driving style, roads, weather, etc...

Possible? Yes. Likely to have a noticable impact--I personally doubt it.

PS: Yes, new browser, now I can post here again...

It really shouldn't affect it to the point where you would notice any difference.
