Bad mileage.
I've been getting like 12 mpg... I don't drive like a grandma, but I deffinatly don't drive like a maniac. I was remembering hearing about having a SES light ( I have one for !Air ) and how it will cause the car to run on preset A/F tables, is that true?

I know this answers only part of your question, but have you cleaned your air filter in a little while. Seriously, when I cleaned mine I immediately noticed a 3-4 mpg difference. Also, tire pressure can affect mpg too. A lot of little things can add up to really shitty gas mileage.

Tires are fine as well. Thanks though man, your right, everything adds up...

K&N's are black with a dark purple filter.

I really hope that's not it. I just had a problem getting to spark plug 7 and was trying to take the O2 off my Y pipe to get to it, and I tried with all my mite to get that O2 loose, and COULDN"t do it... I guess I need more leverage... lol
But back to the original question. Is having a SES light hurting my mileage, or my performance in anyway/shape/form?
