I got my car dyno'd a couple of day ago and it came at with 185.9rwkw(stock) just wanted to see who else has done it and what did they get?2. At the dyno the guy said I had a "miss" in the car and I have told ford but I wondering if anyone as had one, and whats causing it. and should I tell ford how to fix it:)3. (bit of a weird question but hey) Does anyone know how the DTE gets worked out? before my crash a full tank said 462 got it back and went up to 522 but lately it alwats says 482 :banghead: does anyone know how it is worked out??thanks..

Your DTE will vary with the way the car is driven and should improve as the motor loosens up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it isn't particularly accurate.When my T was new I was able to get the DTE down to 2 k's.Then I ran out of juice with the DTE reading 42k's. Bugger! It happened on a Sunday with the cheese and kisses and tin lids in the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
