You don't have ignition wires. You have 6 coils, one over each spark plug.

Anyone ever tried a Fuel Optimization Module?
They claim to increase power, torque and milage. It all sounds to good to be true as I read about it.

Hi everyone, I am new here, this is my first post. I have had my 06 Frontier LE for 1 month now, I am getting consistent 15-15.5 MPG as good

(or bad)

as my 1999 Silverado that I just got rid of. I didnt expect much of an increase but none at all is kind of disapointing. My fuel calculator is right on with my actual figures by the way.

Some of us do get much better mileage using 93 octane. My 2007 V-6 4WD Fronty does much better on high octane gas. In terms of $/mile, it is cheaper to run hi-test in it than regular. Just something to try.
