About 2 mpg or something like that. Let's see 1/2 tank and 4 miles (dyno pulls).

it honestly sounds like O2 sensors to me... but we'll get in there and see what she's doing when we meet up and see if you need something more than a basic revision... if its really the O2 sensors, it'll be cheaper to buy those than to pay for me to do a full tune on the car only to discover that you still need the O2 sensors... I might have a couple of old ones you can borrow to see if they make a difference, Patrick.

Seafoam it and change the fuel filter. See if that helps alittle. Fresh plugs help too. I got 22 hwy this morning so probably 15-17 city? Hey, did you ever do the fender roll? Did it help any?

Atleast your car is a h/c car. Im just boltons with a tune and i get about 11 in the city, and i've done everything possible to fix mileage, everything from new o2s to seafoam to plugs/wires.

So don't feel too bad lol
