horrible gas mileage

Re: horrible gas mileage
i'm still getting 7.7mpg-10mpg with my 93z28. I have done a complete tune up from oil change,oil filter,air filter,map sensor,spark splugs and wires, and o2 sensors. my car still is terrible. I dont drive it hard at all. just cruising speeds.all of my driving is done in town. the only thing i have not fixed has been my electric fans. they are hooked up directly and stays on all the time but that shouldnt even cause my milage to be that bad. i am starting to believe its something worse. i migt have to consider selling her.

Re: horrible gas mileage
I'm in the same boat as you guys. I can't get more then 180 - 190 a tank with around town driving. That's with a complete tune up and new o2 sensors. The most i got was 20mpg when i took a long trip and that was with 100% highway driving.

Re: horrible gas mileage
I had a small exhaust leak that cut my mileage down to about 5/8 of what it WAS getting... listen for little pffftinging/ticking from under the car. The guy that screwed the flange for my cat didn't do it tight enough and I got it fixed yesterday. Not to mention it pulls much smoother now and feels better overall.

Re: horrible gas mileage
Can you guys translate that to total kms to a tank. I've been getting under 400kms to a tank. Recently my car was running rough, I took off the hypertech PIII programming & it started runnin better. I got my trip meter set when I did the last fill up so I'm waitin to see if it helped. I suspect it did but I'll post back when I know for sure.
