i thought this was a pipe dream but i just 18 mpg on my last tank 144 miles on 8 gallons

 

I have been getting good gas mileage too, last 2 tanks it was 20 mpg, it is usually around 16 mpg. Could be the warmer weather maybe?

 

they probably just switched over to summer fuel where you live. summer fuel=less additives= more mpg

 

Weren't they saying something about being so behind that the oil companies were using the winter formulas til about now? I dunno, I may just be crazy...

 

i never knew their was such a thing as winter and summer fuel.

 

i dont own a car so i wouldnt know but how do u guys find out the mpg everytime u drive? estimate? is there a mete in the gauge cluster?

 

Wow that's shitty. My GTUs almost never goes below 25 (well, i'm sure it will once the turbo projects done, haha!)

 

I get 19 all year round.

 

... when filling the tank, divide the number of miles driven by the number of gallons put in?

I got 24mpg my last tank, mostly highway with a few around-town trips. I'm still working on dialing my SAFC in for best economy, and I still need to get a set of cleaned injectors to swap in. Looking at a CD ignition system as well.

i get around 18 mpg, but then i live on an island with no place for highway miles and lots of hills/mountains.

 

I normally get about 16... but I'm showing a few signs of REALLY needing some cleaned injectors.

 

damn just rub in it in. would having the injectors sent off for cleaning help with the mpg. ive replaced both fuel filters, o2 sensor, air filter. oh and thats 18mpg with me being a having a heavy foot driver around the city not much highway driving for my car.

 

I get 22 MPG and my car smells like a rolling gas station

 

i get around 20-22 also and i have a bit of a lead foot and it is a T2 and running a bit rich...

 

^what he said

 

since i just removed my smog pump...car is dumping fuel out the back. backfiring like crazy..8 mpg or less needs tuning

 

I got about 16 on my last tank, gotta love not having to drive the freeway anywhere...

 

12 mpg totally stock; if im lucky
