no, you would have to redo the whole car. new tranny, gearing. It wouldn’t be cost effective. All you can do it dont drive fast and keep the car running good.
Het is een hoop geld in de plaats van alle delen die u nodig zou hebben om met het oog op de omschakeling van een van uw voertuigen. En dat is niet erg rendabel, als je gaat uitgeven dat veel converteren, u beter af zou zijn als het kopen van een goedkope weinig rust-segment alleen maar om u rond met een hoge MPG's voor een paar honderd dollar! Een ander wat je kunt doen is je valutal]It is a lot of money to replace all the parts you would need to in order to convert either of your vehicles. Which is not very cost effective, if you’re going to spend that much converting, you would be better off buying a cheap little rust-bucket just to get you around with high MPG’s for a couple hundred bucks!
Another thing you can do is maximize your current MPG’s]
14 in a 2002 Explorer? Must be a lot of city driving.
Step one would be a new fuel filter,air filter, and spark plug change if not done within last 30,000 miles or so and oil in last 5,000 miles as most neglect this and eats the fuel mileage hard.
make sure air pressure is at 35psi and be easy on the gas is about the only real proven fuel economy answers.
The water conversions still have the jury out on them.. some swear by them, some say it doesn’t work as claimed for the money spent to buy and install the system (as the water has to be metered just so or you can explode a engine)
And what I read is from certified techs… not the people selling these systems on the side
