Easy your half right, the older 12 valve cummins takes 2.5 (10 quarts). 16-18 sounds doable but I have a hard time believing 20+ mpg in any full size pickup. Doing all the mods on diesels are way more expensive, I can buy lots of gas and spark plugs for that. Not trying to sound like a hater, Corry and easy, but for me it don't make sense.
And the cummins take a 51607 (wix) oil filter. I've changed a bunch of oil in cummins and can't help but remember that.
tater, im agreeing with you on the mpg, ive only got one that will do it and that's unloadedQuote:

18 to 22 is typical, my truck gets better millage in town or on the highway towing then my 2001 Mazda tribute 4cyl, i'm running a little bigger tire but doesn't seem to effect it much i don't notice a difference, 265s on 16s. and there is a small lift in it for plowing snow. my friends truck gets 16 with a 10ft V plow on the front, on the highway. my rebuilt tranny helps to.
I have a bone stock 94 cummins gets 19-21 on highway empty gets 14-15 start highway my truck will go over 600 miles on one tank.Quote:
