Default stock gas mileage

am looking at getting a basic range on what i should see on a full tank mileage wise... stock a4 2.73 94 lt1. only real mod is a tune. i was seeing 300ish mixed before and now it is down to 225 ish. I think that it is due to my opti slowly dieing.

cliff notes how many miles to the tank a4 2.73 stock lt1.

I get over 250 to a tank. More mods than you also.

Was 300 before or after the tune? My brothers stockish m6 car seems to do around 300.

i can barely get 200, but thats probably becasue im constantly flooring it. as soon as my clutch starting dying, i could drive as fast, so it went up to like 250, but never more than that

I dont know how many miles to the tank I get, but I averaged it out a few times and I was getting around 24 mpg.

200ish, but thats with a stall and bolt-ons (3.23s)...The speed limit in town is like 30mph and I must hit 10 lights on the way to work. Im lucky if it even gets up to 30 before I have to stop again. In my old town, with a stock stall, 300 on long trips was the best I got. 260 was when I would fill up in town.
