averaged 5.58 MPG, cooling fans are driven by belt, the waterpump that is installed is too small, is from an 8V72, i have the correct unit for the 8V92, just need to install it, i also found out it had the 180*F thermostats but should have the 170*F units, once i installed the correct ones the temp was alot more managable, with the 180*F units the engine would get to 212*F and shut down
