I have a 1999 Dodge Caravan with 182,000 miles on it I always check my in town gas miles and the last six years my mpg has been 19.9 adout three months after useing Auto-Rx I checked my mpg I was shocked it was 21.2 that increased by 1.3 mpg thats not much but at $2.66 per gallon it helps. Has anyone with a Dodge caravan checked thier miles after useing Auto-Rx?
Increased gas miles after using Auto-Rx.

ARX boosted the MPGs on all 3 of my pick-ups. This is not uncommon for this product.
It also made the engine noise much quieter.

I don't own a Dodge Caravan. However, my experience with Auto-Rx was similar to JAYCEE's. My Isuzu Trooper's best mpg was around 20.5 prior to using Auto-Rx. I also really "babied" the vehicle on those tanks of gas.
Now, I can easily obtain 24 mpg with the tank gas evenly split between city and highway driving. I once obtained 26 mpg with all freeway driving. By the way, the EPA rated my SUV with 15 in the city and 19 on the highway.
Let me say that I tried to keep everything the same except for the Auto-Rx. The increase in mpg happened on the very first tank after the rinse cycle about six months ago. It continues to remain high to this day. The only time it has dropped below 24 mpg was when I cranked on the AC this summer.
I am very pleased I stumbled across this forum and discovered Auto-Rx.

My F250 (460 V8) went from the 7-8 range to the mid-9 range as a result of ARX. I know, I know, it's still getting horrible mileage, but for a carbureted, non-overdrive, 4.10-geared, 22-year old 4x4 with over 100,000 miles on it, this is above average, believe it or not.
And, it runs beautifully now... idles smoothly, starts immediately, powerful. I've still got about six hundred miles left on the first rinse phase, so I'm sure there will be further improvements as I go through the second ARX application.
Plus, I used ARX in the trans (C6) and it took an already good shifting automatic and made it smoother and more positive shifting. It shifts like a new trans, and this one has 102,000 miles on it.
I love ARX!
BTW, FP really cleaned up the fuel system and all of ARX's improvements have been made more effective through the use of FP.
I love FP, too!

I'm just coming up to 1,000 miles for the clean phase using AutoRX with my 95 Maxima and I was pleased with my MPG on my last tank of gas. It turned out to be better than I expected given the mix of driving. Between the AutoRX and the switch to synthetic oil after the clean phase (Esso XD3 Extra, 0w30), I am hopeful my fuel economy will improve somewhat, although I can't complain about it to begin with.
I autorx'ed my 97 maxima because it was making a weird noise at startup autorx got rid of the noise 500 miles into cleaning, the good thing with fp and cleaning I got an avg of 36 mpg on highway a gain of 5-6 mpg and I am not done with the rinse phase yet. Great stuff
If you clean your engine with Auto-Rx you have cleaned your ring packs=increase in compression
=increase in combustion efficency all of this =better MPG.
Do you know if you go on the Auto-Rx Maintenace Plan of 2 ounces of Auto-Rx with each oil change (3 ounces if engine has sludge issues) you never have to clean your engine again.I doubt a garage will see your vehicle again. I say this because clean metal gets full lubrication and you extend the MTBF (mean time before failure) of all oil lubricated rotating parts. Oil can't penetrate through dirt.

My last fill-up, I calculated an increase from 23mpg to 27mpg 600 miles into my 2nd clean cycle. Of course, this is with me trying to drive as gentle as possible so it could be the autorx or a change in driving style.
On this tank of gas, I'm going to drive normal and see what kind of mileage I get.

I can't believe that this company is not burning up the order page. With my '03 Avalon I have gotten increased gas mileage of 3 to 5 MPG depending on where and how I am driving (highway or town). For a small investment of $25. I feel I have gotten my money's worth and them some, a clean engine that won't need to go in the shop ( less spent money), better gas mileage, the car in general runs much better like new. I am going to order another bottle for constance mantinance!
