Finally, I replaced my leaking Accel Pump. Before when it was leaking I was getting 10MPG. Now I am getting 17MPG!

I'm getting 22 mpg on my 85 GSL-SE. I've checked it on three different fill-ups. I was very surprised. When I got it I was expercting 18mpg or so...

You can tell if its leaking if its all wet, or its wet around the area!
