Not much but there are a lot of other benefits of fuel injection. However if you use the ebl system and set it up with a speed sensor added you can drive in a "cruise mode" with a much higher air/ fuel ratio and you will have fuel savings.

The Howell EFI worked PERFECTLY all the way. Great mileage. Got to within 45 miles of the GMCMI rally. The new brake light switch from China failed. Oh well. Got 500 miles out of it. Went to lower the right rear air bags to take a shower. T then the two compressor system quit working. Then during the night. Our furnace stopped working. I expected some of this because this GMC sat next to a cornfield in Iowa from Oct of 1995 to Oct of 2015. But now it appears that I've pissed off the electrical god EL. That has to be my problem.
