I though I would take the time tonight to Thank the many IRV2er's for all the great information I have viewed on this site over the last year. This information has been invaluable in helping me with problems & upgrades needed (or wanted)for our motorhome.

I hope I can offer advise in the future that can help others in their quest!

By the way, one improvement, that I did, that was only mentioned briefly in the past are the Pluse Plugs from Pulstar. The preliminary results have given our motorhome almost a one (1) mile per gallon increase from 6.5 to 7.5mpg. Also, the butt dyno was noticable under normal driving conditions and even going up the Cajon Pass from Riverside to Las Vegas. Our coach, with a 6 speed allison went to the top of the hill in 4th gear shifting only to 3rd just before the peak. Previously, before the Pulse Plug's we were down to 2nd gear approaching the peak. It's worth checking out the Pulse Plugs! Of course, I still intend to do the Ultra Power!

Thanks,

Gregory Timm

I did say almost 1 mpg...that should be updated to "up to" one (1) mpg! Any increase at these gas prices is good! I'm still planning the Ultra Power! In retrospect I "Should have bought a Diesel?"

Greg </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Diesel prices are about $.60 higher around here and for what you paid for your gas motorhome, a diesel at that price would be way under powered and get worse mileage than your Workhorse.

The "Should of bought a Diesel" comment is more about power not the mileage! I'm very happy with my W22 and will enjoy for many years!

Thanks,
