fuel problem
 
Hey again...well my car is working great now(thanks to the guy that pointed out the TPS thing.) So now my problem is that its eating gas like a maniac...again its a 13b '87 Mazda Turbo II and i'm quite sure it shouldn't go from a 3/4 to in between 1/2 and 1/4 in one day...well not even more like 4 hrs of on and off driving without the a/c on. So if you guys have any solutions to this problem please notify me.

When was the last time you changed your o2 sensor, air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs/wires?

ya know something...i havent the slightest idea if the guy who owned it before me did any of those things...i'm pretty sure he didnt though. as for changing some parts i can't get them at my local mazda dealer cause (even if i special order the parts) they'll say they can't bring them cause they're not in dire need of the part. :S

Air filter/o2 sensor/spark plugs can be found at your local auto parts store. (Kragen, Autozone, Napa etc.)

For the fuel filter and spark plug wires, you can try www.mazdaformance.com or www.mazdatrix.com

You can probably get the plug wires at the auto parts store too but I wouldn't recommend it. At the last dyno meet some guy had the Kragen wires and well, there was a consensus (sp?) among the more knowledgable guys that he was mis-firing and the culprit could be those plug wires. So OEM = good/better.
