20 MPG on a Toyota 4Runner, Yes you can! 4 Easy and Simple Steps 

Another tip: only use Top Tier fuel (google for full list of stations, but the ones in my area are Shell, Costco, Marathon, Valero, Chevron and Sunoco). Note that BP is no longer on the list. Toyota (and others) recommend. The detergent additives in Top Tier fuels help keep fuel systems clean and it’s legit.

In West Coast cities if you don't clean out your car regularly some of the more helpful residents will do it for you overnight

Greetings from New Jersey! New subscriber here and I'm really enjoying your down to earth approach. I have a stock 2016 SR5 4WD with 130k miles and have routinely gotten 19+ MPG (70/30 Highway/City) since new. I have gotten as much as 23 MPG on moderately loaded 350 mile highway trips. I add Techron every 6 months. I'll be cleaning the throttle body and MAF sensor at my next oil change and will do the idle reset routine at that time. I'm 68 years old and I can honestly say this vehicle is THE BEST I've ever owned! I LOVE MY 4RUNNER! Thanks for your awesome channel!

2018 SR5 Premium here. I can get over 22MPG on the highway consistently with light truck tires. Agree that tire pressure makes a difference (38PSI cold for me) but speed also makes a HUGE difference. I stay around 60-65MPH and find that going to 75MPH+ can drop me well under 20MPG. These 4runners are basically boxes on wheels so they're not great aerodynamically. Aerodynamic drag increases exponentially with speed so you need to find *your* balance to get there fast vs getting better fuel efficiency. When I'm in a hurry, I drive 75-80MPH and get around 18-19MPG. All conditions are lightly loaded with one passenger and two suitcases.

I get 21mpg with my 2024 4runner, driving habits are the biggest contributor.

Much appreciated video. Thanks for taking us through step by step. Your video are getting me to know my 4Runner more and more. Always looking forward to the next one.

Everything you mentioned makes sense and does help. I've changed out the spark coils to the RIPP variant and am keeping notes to see if there is a difference in MPG. I also installed new NGK Laser Iridium plugs at the same time. One thing I've noticed is after installing the Sprint Booster (V3) I don't need to hit the pedal hard to get any meaningful response and mileage did go up slightly by around .3 MPG. I found that the Sprint Booster is much better than the Pedal Commander, which I found to be a joke compared to the SB. Yes, I bought the PC first and realized the error of my ways. Someone else mentioned speed. Yes, keeping these 4-wheel blocks below 65 mph or so does make a big difference. One thing that was mentioned - wheels and tires. I have a 2016 TRD Pro. I was thinking of "going larger" but then I looked at the increase in weight and rotational mass. Not worth it, especially when I have to deal with those times when we get snow. Wider tires in snow does result in less traction. It's a proven fact that black wheels get better mileage than gold ones. :) We live in the mountains at around 5,600' and I've found 91 Octane does help in terms of mileage. It does cost more per gallon, but the better mileage does offset that cost, but not by much, but still worth it. Thanks for taking the time.

Take off that roof rack and crossbars until you need them. Having that up there for "looks" is a big aero dynamitic drag.

I also clean the MAF sensor every oil change. Maybe overkill? But easy to do and takes literally a few minutes. Now going to add throttle body cleaning to next round of maintenance. 👍🏻

Another trick (for those who live in hilly regions) is to give it gas when going downhill and let off the gas when going uphill. It sounds counterintuitive because you'd think you want to coast going downhill. But actually, if you accelerate on the downhill sections, you're gaining momentum with the help of gravity and thus using less gas overall. By slowing down on the uphill, you're not wasting gas by fighting gravity. I get great mpg this way.

Thank you! I appreciate all the info. Will definitely be doing this on my 4runner. More power to you.

Dude keep up the hard work, love the tips

I just accelerate slowly and maintain the ECO light (which I didn’t know was annoying to a lot of owners 😂) as I accelerate. When driving on the highway, I’ll let off the gas a little on uphill sections and let it coast downhill. With no wind or tailwind, I can get up to 23 mpg. With a head wind that number drops back down to 18 or 19 mpg; still better than 15 with rough driving in the wind.

Have done the throttle body on both the 4runner and GX470. Baseline your idle # with something like a BlueDriver Pro OBD2 reader. Make the changes and see what happens. Last year on an 1800mi round trip with a loaded basket on the back of the 4Runner, 2 ppl and a 80lb dog, @36psi, we averaged 18mpg. Doing same trip this year and will see how these changes impact MPG. Tip on the throttle body butterfly, be GENTLE when you move it to clean the inside and edges. You can break the motor on it. You can also just remove the 4 bolts and it pops off easily to do both sides. The computer will reset itself, no need to do the battery. Just take it for a drive for 10-15 min and it'll figure it out.

YOU ARE THE MAN!!! thank you for all your knowledge on the 4 Runner buddy!😉

Just followed the tips here on my new-to-me 2016 Trail Premium and it instantly went from showing 380 cruising distance to 425 miles… will be interesting to see how this bears out! Reading through the comments for other tips too 🤓

I just found your channel, and I love it. Great job. I have 2005 4Runner/154K miles and have owed it since it was new. I located some of the things you have mentioned in other videos: trash can, glove box, etc. Holy cow; what a nice surprise after all of these years. Thank you,

Great tips with the throttle body cleaning and idle reset. I'm going to have to give that a shot, I'm about to hit 140k and I don't know if that's ever been done. As it is, I consistently get 20.0 - 20.5 with mine during my daily commute, and on road trips I can get about 22.5. before I added steel skids, rock sliders, and all terrain tires, I could get 22 pretty easily, and I once got 24.5 on a 400 mi road trip. That's hand calculated, not going by the vehicles readout. I find the biggest thing with these is driving with a light foot, and keeping it under 70 mph.

I have a '17 5th Gen TRD ORP and have managed over 20 mpg (as high as 24.81 mpg an a 150 mile stretch) on the highway (NOT Interstate) on a vacation trip by doing the following: Use street tires (Not AT/MT) Bridgestone Dueler HT OE tires, keep the pressures at 35 psi, carry only 2 passengers and their vacation stuff for a week (say 150 lbs) and travel on nice weather, almost wind less, and at speeds "averaging" 45 MPH (2 lane state highways makes this reasonable). Car was broken in at around 8,000 miles and in exceptional condition. Front/Rear diff and TC fluids changed at 5,000 miles to synthetic, I always use premium not for the octane but the better detergents. BTW, I get 17.5 mpg in the city averaging 25 mph. I think the average on the Interstate would drop to 19~20 mpg average if I drove 75 mph steady.

Increasing the tire pressure is probably what makes the most difference on your list. When I was younger I filled my Jetta's tires to the psi listed on the side walls. Instead of 32, I think I inflated them to 45 for a cross-country road trip and got AMAZING gas mileage. But! I ruined my tires because they were concave with the excessive pressure and wore down the middle of the treads... down to the steel radials. Ugh. Live and learn. Go off the tire pressures listed on your door jam label.

I've got a 2017 4Runner TRD. On the highway I get 19.7mpg without any mods. The intake cleaning they do at the dealership makes a sizable difference in mine. It goes down to 17.5mpg when dirty and then back to 19.7mpg clean. 2.2mpg doesn’t seem like much until you look at it as a percentage. It's about 14% better once it’s clean. Gas around here right now is $3.29 per gal for regular. So a savings of just 14% adds up quickly at the pump

My wife has a stock 2019 XP Edition 4Runner with 12,000+ miles on it. I have a 2003 Z71 Tahoe with 320,000+ miles on it with a leveling kit that is setup to duplicate the "OEM rake", 285/75r16 Cooper S/T Maxx tires on Cragar 16x8, 5" BS Soft 8 steel rims. The only modifications my truck has is an AIRRAID full-flow throttle body intake tube, an AEM dry air filter (after noticing oil residue buildup on my previous Durango in the mass air sensor and the throttle body, I stopped using the K&N oil filters), a set of Gibson headers, new down pipes due to the old ones having the catalytic bricks break apart and sounded like rocks rattling around and a Cherrybomb Vortex 3"in/3"out muffler. So I have decent intake and exhaust. I do also have a Curt extended cargo rack on top with a 32" curved light bar facing to the rear for trailer operations and backing down my 80' "driveway". Oh yeah, one final thing, I have a military HMMWV rear bumper WITH a HMMWV tire carrier. The reason I mention all of these it that my 19 year old Tahoe gets similar gas mileage to her 3 year old 4Runner, about 14mpg in town on short runs that involve some stop and go with traffic lights and just nudging 16.5mpg at highway speeds 65mph max to her 17mpg. Her 4Runner is a slick roof, no cross rails even on the "roof rack". She still gets it serviced at the Yoyo dealership, so I am hesitant to do any of the mods mentioned in the comments right now. Her warranty should be coming up real soon so maybe with a bit of slight of hand I can start switching some things out to improve her fuel mileage. We are both in our senior years and yet have different mindsets on vehicle prep.

On my wife's 2019 Limited AWD I changed out the 20" factory wheels and tires to 17" TRD wheels and BFGoodrich's Advantage T/A Sport LT tires - much more of a highway tire. The Limited's 20" wheels and tires weighted in at 76lbs. The 17" TRD wheels and tires weight 61lbs. I dropped 15lbs at each corner plus changed the dynamics of the rotational mass by moving more mass towards the center of the wheel. I have always noticed my Limited to be more sluggish and brake a bit slower then my TRD ORP - the parasitic drag of the AWD system and those 20" heavy wheels. My TRD ORP is still a bit more responsive but drivability of the Limited is much better now. As an additional benefit I picked-up on average 1.5 to 2 MPG better on the Limited. On the highway at 65 to 70 MPH the Limited averages ~21.5MPG where before I was at ~19.5MPG.

That fuel treatment (which is basically Techron) is the same thing Chevron put into their premium 93 octane at the pump. A clean air filter and fuel injectors are a must for MPG.

My 2005 4 Runner has been getting 23-24 MPG on the highway since the day I bought it. It’s a six cylinder SR 5, I use regular gasoline, and it has 140,000 miles on it. Bought it new.

Followed your instructions exactly on the intake clean and fuel additive, also gonna bump my new tires up a tad (Wildpeaks, stock size). Looking forward to seeing if there's any change. Either way I feel good about giving my girl some TLC anyway. I cleaned the air filter while I was at it (I have a reusable one). With my last fill-up reaching $80, I'll take any help I can get. Thanks so much for a great video!

Everything you mentioned is spot on, but what works for is changing my driving habits, and not being too harsh on the gas, that got me around 23mpg on highways,

Great advice in your video. Something that I noted worthy to do and that I have done with all my cars is to log every time I buy gas (I fill up), how much fuel I filled up, my ODO meter and what I paid for the gas. Then I play around with different Octane levels. Many times it turns out that the higher octance which is more expensive pays off on the distance when you run the numbers. Also, sometimes it is worth buying the gasoline that is not mixed up with ethanol (if it is available and legal in your state or country). And sometimes cars run pretty ok on E85 every other tank even if it is not made for it. I never tried that with a 4Runner.

You’re right. Every little bit helps. Thanks for these tips.

It’s amazing what a throttle body cleaning does

Cool info, thanks! Our 2020 has 15k miles, and OE size Duratracs. We always use Premium Top Tier gas and consistently get 20-21.5 mostly city, some highway. Premium is completely unnecessary, but makes me feel better. Love the bronze wheels 😎

Just bought a 23 ORP with 300 miles on the ODO from Idaho, drove it back from ID to CA .. 900+ Miles, got 19-22 MPG most of the way.

Good advice. I'll be sure to reset my idle and clean up the intake. Thanks!

Thanks man, I’ll give this a try. 👍

I have a TRD Off Road 2019 and never off the dealer lot got better than 17 mpg. I’m a pretty conservative driver. So I’m gonna try this and hope to see a bump up in MPG. Thanks for the video

2020 offroad premium, bought new. Stock, I'd routinely see over 20mpg. Best was a little over 23 while drafting traffic at 70-75. EPA estimations are quite low imo. Currently I'm running a stage 3 ironman 4x4 foam cell pro suspension system, 3.5" in front, 2.5" lift in rear on 33" wildpeaks. Ditch lights can't help the wind resistance either... I now average about 17mpg. On 55mph back roads and during faster highway drafting, I'll occasionally flash into the low-mid 19s. Never touched the throttle body but I'll probably give it a try as I'm at about 37k miles. K&N filter did improve mileage ever so slightly as well. I'd say after the lift and tires, I'm closer to the stock EPA estimations. If a stock 5th gen isn't getting 20+ on the highway, it's either a right foot problem, weight, or a nasty air filter/TB. Just my .02

I have an 2022 4runner trail running milestar mud tires and went on a 700 mile trip 20mph surprised the crap out of me. These vehicles never stop amazing.

Awesome video I am also a forerunner owner I actually took my spare tire out just for around in town driving nothing more than six or 7 miles away and that’s almost 100 pounds and it increases your mileage

Thanks for the tips always it’s help

I got 2007 v8 4Runner. Has 240k miles , 3 inch lift and 34 inch ridge grappler tires. I live in mountain and get 17.5 mpg. I drive slow up hills trying to keep my rpms low as I can. I drive down hill in neutral and go up to 85 mph on some hills. I drove with lead foot before and got 14.5 mpg.

A great upgrade/ increasing fuel economy. You might want to consider going with a electric fan. Decreases drag on engine. I prefer reversible electric fan. Reversible option for extended engine running while stopped to push heat out of engine bay. I use color coded lights & 3 position rocker switch. Green normal air flow Red reverse air flow

Good tips. Great looking 4Runner too!

I did a little trip a few weeks ago on my 5th gen 4runner SR5 4WD, I managed to hit 21 mgp, I just did a mayor tune up, mobile1 oil 0-20, transfer case fluid (Redline MT-LV) all differentials fluid replaced(Valvoline 75W-90), K&N air intake, all tires pressure were at 35 psi. I had horrible gas mileage before doing all this. I will be doing transmission service soon.

Great tips! Will try them out on my new 4Runner!

Great video thanks for the tips

I have a 2007 4runner 2wd 133k miles and i get 23-25mpg on highway. 1. Tires- get narrower and smaller tires, like 245 75r17, 265 65r17, 245, 70r17. And get higway rolling resistance tires like michelin ms2, goodyear assurance , cooper ht3 2. Slow down, dont floor it , dont pass a lot. 3. Roof rack can cause air resistant 4. Get a bumper bra or rock chip clear silicone film, and ceramic coat make it cut through air better. 5. Good shocks, control arms, cv axles, wheel bearings maintenance, swat bar so car does have body roll 6. Good fuel pump , spark plugs, air filter, if are tired n old worse mpg. 7. External body add ons , lift kits are not neeed if is a driver car not off roading.

I've had a couple of 5th Gen 4 Runners. And I live in the mountains of NC. Unless I'm pulling a trailer, I usually get about 22 mpg or just a little less in everyday driving. Trailer takes it down to 16-18 mpg. I get a lot better mileage in the flatlands of course. Yeah, I watch my weight and stuff but mainly I have a light foot and don't get in a hurry. We don't have Interstates nearby, but I keep close to the speed limit on the US Highways. When I do hit the Interstates, I keep it under 75. At any rate, these things will get reasonable gas mileage, but you can't drive them balls to the wall and expect decent mileage. My bottom line is to be a bit lighter on the right foot. Any time it might save you (and it's usually not much) will cost you greatly. It's all really about the drive anyway, not the destination. Enjoy the trip and save some bucks too. Lighten up on the right foot.

2016 Trail Premium with 8500 miles. I only get 13mpg on twice a week... in town driving. My mechanic says that the BF Goodrich KO2 tires are the culprit, but they also keep me from having to pay for people to shovel my New England driveway. I just go right through the snow. I shouldn't complain, but retired living means penny pinching.

All good thanks for your great videos. Thanks appreciate your channel.

My 4Runner SR5 Premium 2021 and my previous auto; A 2011 Honda Pilot: I keep it steady on the hwy at 70mph, I do not break every 5 seconds, no need to have a concrete foot unless I need to pass drivers slower than me. I don't put the AC at full blast and I avoid excessive hard acceleration. Usually at the end of my trip from SF to LA I average about 21-22 mpg. throw in some street driving and I'm looking at 20mpg.

This might sound like overkill but I run Techron and clean the throttle body with each oil change (5,000 miles or six months whichever come first using Mobil 1). I also run a quality paper air filter and change it at least once per year depending on if I have been on a dusty trail and then of course more frequently. I also check, clean and lube my throttle linkage and grease the drive shaft. Results? NO PROBLEMS! Vehicle has over 120,000 miles.

I have been doing most of what you explained here on my 2007 4Runner. I don't accelerate hard from a stop - which helped my gas mileage tremendously, which is about the only thing I know is additional help. Yet, as I watched, I wondered why I had not done the same to my wife's Kia Soul. Kind of a Homer Simpson moment. Well, dah. I bet it can get a mile or two more per gallon. I willing to bet it does.

I jump on the parkway at 89 and run up to Englewood 87 miles 1 way. I set the cruise control at 70 mph, the best i get is 21 mpg. Its pretty much a flat run all the way up. Done every day!

#1 question.. How often should the Transmission be flushed ? with or with out filter is just cleaning the filter be sufficient? #2 question, will changing the serpentine main belt on a 2015 4Runner help the engine Idle that seems to be switching my transmission gears to quickly back and forth at the 35 to 45 MPH range or do you think its the transmission directly causing the gear change strangely.

15.9 for me, magnaflow, s&b intake, n&b Baja rack, poor man’s brush guard, 1.25 wheel spacers, good year duratrac, and all my camping/survival gear, 8 gallons of water, molle panels with tools etc…

Thanx i didn't know that..." awesome stuff...😃👍

Very good video and content. As usual.

I wouldn't presume to tell anyone what cleaner they "should" use, to each their own. Any cleaner is better than no cleaner. I will tell you, however, which one I use. Seafoam. I've used that stuff in all my engines for years. Before my 4Runner, I had a 2019 Ram. While we were on vacation at the campground the engine started running rough and misfiring. Hemi's are NOTORIOUS for lifter and camshaft failure, so my paranoia went to 11. But, I didn't hear the classic hemi tick. There were two codes, one for misfire in cylinder 6 and another for too lean condition at the 02 sensor. That made me think fuel injectors. So we ran up to the part store and grabbed a bottle of seafoam. Dumped it into the tank and by the time we got back to the campground, not only were the codes gone, but the engine was running smoother than it had in months. Highly recommend seafoam for gas treatments. If you use it for oil system, just know you have to change your oil 100-300 miles after you use it. I've never used the seafoam throttle body cleaner, so I can't speak to that one.

Yes! Evry litta bit of help is worth trying. It’s fun when once in a while I break the 15 mark.

I maintain my 4Runner, changing the oil every 4,000 miles, even grease the drivetrain joints, and I always get 20-21 MPG. I'm just below 100K miles. I think it's because I don't stomp on the gas pedal and I've got few heavy objects in the vehicle.

Excess/redundant weight is low hanging fruit. Same with items on the roof creating drag. There are way too many soccer moms in my town with a pile of overlanding crap on their 4runner 365 days per year, yet I don't think any of them go off-road. Or the vehicles only see dirt a few times a year. Awnings, cargo baskets, spare tire hitch mounts, shovels, traction boards, extra gas tanks, roof top tents. Nobody needs to drive around town with all that crap hanging off your vehicle and destroying your MPG. Other than the lightweight and low rolling resistance AT tires that I just installed (Nokian Outpost AT in the stock size and SL load range) I plan to keep my 4runner naked and bone stock. I only install the roof rack, cargo box and bike rack if/when I actually need them, then I immediately remove them. It only takes a few minutes to reinstall them as needed.

2010 Trail Edition with 165k miles... I have a K&N reusable air filter and find that if clean it after every oil change i can eek out another 1 - 1.5 MPG. So, here's the MPG journey of my 4Runner: Stock with the Dunlop passenger rated tires I could get 22 MPG for highway driving I added a Gobi rack and I lost 2 MPG - So I averaged around 19 MPG highway I upgraded the tires to LT C rated BFG TA KO's and lost another 1.5 MPG - So around 17.5 MPG I lifted the 4Runner 3 inches, replaced the BFG's with Coopers (lighter) and replaced the stock wheels with SCS Ray 10's (lighter). It ended up being about the same at 17.3 MPG.

Thanks for your last reply. Do you know about the back up intermittent Back up camera display. on the 2015 4Runner??

I typically get 20+ mpg on the highway with my 2022 SR5. The tire pressure (from the factory/dealership) is set to 55psi for each tire. Driving style is huge, a light touch on the gas pedal makes a world of difference.

2023 forerunner I live in Edmond, Oklahoma, and I travel to Olathe Kansas I get 280 miles per tank and I need 320 I think this will put me over the edge of not having to refuel during the trip

I'm on 18MPG after a throttle plate and body cleanup🤩

Best way to gain mileage is to go with highway tires. I went on FB market and bought some SR5 wheels and put on some HT tires. I do 20mpg easy

Is there any difference MPG wise with the window visors? Or just helps keep rain /snow out if you want your windows rolled down?

Hey man I love the content. It’s very helpful to keep up with my runner. What the rock song you played at 7;23 in the video?? Love that beat and I want to listen to the full song

I live in an area with tons of hills, so I usually got 19 MPGs at best, stock. I have a lift with 295's, so I'm only averaging 16 now. I just cleaned my throttle body this week after 70k. I found it easier to remove the throttle body for a thorough cleaning. I'll see if anything improves.

Do you have any suggestions on swapping out the Xreas suspension system to go for a less expensive standard suspension like a Billstien 501?

2022 Limited. I get 18/22. My secret? I live at the beach. It’s flat. When I go to the mountains - 15/17 plus I’m loaded with bikes, gear….etc.

I just picked up a '23 4runner trd offroad last Saturday. Yesterday 217 mile round trip in NH....23.5 mpg . Maybe 20% interstate.. mountains, some highways and small towns. Currently 487 miles.

nice tips, keep it up :). on step 3, what millage should i do this? thank you.

I took off my skid plates. It’s a 2wd. Oil changes are much faster now.

Does unhooking the battery wipe out other things like radio presets, memory seat positions, etc?

Good tips!

Keeping your front wheels aligned and changing all the fluids and filters a little bit ahead of time and definitely don’t use hyper thin oil 5W-30 year-round is okey-dokey or 0W 30 and I totally agree with the other guy get rid of the roof rack and find a way that you can seal the holes

So on the paper it says to put it on N to reset idle but when u did it u left it in park so did it really reset?

Wondering why you have to disconnect the battery before adding the fuel system cleaner. Does the order of operations matter? Is the battery disconnect what prompts the idle to reset?

Using cruise control everywhere you can. I can average about 325-375 per full tank of gas

i can get 22-23 highway on my 2011 5.7 tundra. it depends on if you are driving it or just pushing the pedal. read the road, use the throttle to get to speed, back off a smidge, coast when you can, use the road to limit steering movement (i.e. straightest path thru curves), its work, but makes a difference than the 16 i get if i'm lazy.

On your gas door there are 2 metal pieces sticking out. Kinda round looking. Put the threaded part of your gas cap there rather than letting it hit the paint on the fender

I seen a video still up on RU-vid about a maf spacer do you think those things work ?

My stock 2010 with factory spark plugs and 190,000 on it has averaged up to a legit 25 mpg on the highway doing 72 mph plenty of times, and has had a very consistent mean of 21.5 mpg with driving like an ass in the morning. Usually, I'm getting around 22 combined with my interstate commuting, so doing a lot of highway driving could have some impact on fuel economy as well. At the end of the day though, we didn't buy these trucks because we wanted huge miles per gallon, we got em for huge smiles per gallon : D

I weigh 160 and drive with next to nothing in my 4Runner I have the bfgoodrich ko2’s and I get 15.1 thanks for the tips!

Mine didn’t get 20mpg stock. Now, I’m lifted, bumper, winch, rack, sliders on 33s and I’m happy I get 15-17 on the highway.

I also found that if I increased tire pressure it helped mpg, had 38psi and it was great, till I had to stop on wet pavement, zero traction. Almost blew a stop sign when ABS kicked on. I prefer 32 for highway now.

I always chalk test my tires if not stock. My current all terrains work best at 42 psi. Better mileage and even wear.

I just went from New Jersey to Florida two weeks ago and my 2011 4Runner was averaging out around 400 miles on a full tank of gas and that’s With the cargo area fully loaded.

How often do you reccomend using the fuel cleaner?

Airing the tire up to what the tire says will give you the biggest benefit on mpg.

My ‘new to me’ 2021 4Runner TRD ORP w/Predator Package, that has 34k miles & has the TRD Pro wheels and tires of course, the Nitto Ridge Grapplers, and the best MPG I’ve had so far, in 2 weeks of ownership, was 23.2 and I’ve got a picture of it as I was so shocked coming from my 2015 F250 6.7 diesel getting 11mpg’s 🤦‍♂️ that I traded-in on my 4Runner. I can live with 20+ mpg’s!!

I like that the 4Runner uses regular gas. One of the reasons I bought my 2008 Mazda 3 GT was that it runs on regular gas. That has saved me a lot of money over the last 15 years. My financial situation has changed so I don't mind if the 4Runner runs better on mid grade. I'm just trying to get all the info I can. What grade of gas do you use in your 4Runner?

Be sure to hold the cleaner can with the straw up. When you spray upside down you get more gas than cleaner. You can see it in your video.

How much gas improvement could be expected from the intake cleaning?

how often should you use the cleaners ?

I own a 2011 4Runner and I've been able to reach and surpass 20MPG without taking anything out or off. The way I achieved it was driving on a highway and staying at a steady speed. In city driving and rough take-offs and stops are the detriment of reaching high MPG goals. Pedal Command doesn't get you there either. Change your driving habits and higher than usual MPG goals will be reached.

I drive a 2010 Tacoma with the 4.0 VVTI and get 20 mpg, all stock with an ARE shell on it. Buy a Scanguage because you will see how sensitive the gas pedal is! I also drive 65mph in the freeway.

Techron is the best one because of the PFA in the treatment. Good choice
