I've got an 86 K5 Blazer with the 6.2 diesel and 700R4 trans. and it can get a best of 21 MPG on a flat highway, and averages 16 MPG. It actually gained close to 1 MPG on the average when I unplugged the wire harness from the trans. so the lock-up converter was eliminated. By unhooking it, the engine labors much less and drives much nicer. But, I live in a hilly area with very little flat driving. I assume that if I lived in flatland, the lock-up and overdrive would give better mileage instead of worse.
