compression better be fine with only 61k miles under teh hood.
its the lig. you can see the leak, you can see it drip.
lol.

Take the shift lever and move from 1 into D. If that doesn't work on increasing the mpg, than I hope all your parts really do fix the problem.

Oh yeah and using all that gas, I think would set a code for rich or something of that sort.

Are you sure you didn't drill a hole in your gas tank for NAWS?

i have been getting a constant 230-250 city and 300+ on highway on one tank. so far so good.

Damn. And I've been bitching about getting 22mpg.

All city driving that's what I get

25 MPG city and hiway

32 to 35 MPG all hiway B)

i get 350 to the tank on high way and about 280 -300 in the city. that is with being S/C and racing around all the time i do not have a light foot.

i orginally had a cavalier, which is a nice starter car... but it died so i got my alero, which was a big shock cuz i went from like 25-28mpg to 20-22 mpg, on highway. but then again, the alero rides much better, and is alot faster.. so i won't complain. maybe later i'll get the catback exhaust and a cai... that should help out some.

yeah my friend is having gas problems with his 240sx, its an 89 with 112k miles on it and i swear he gets at least 10 mpg it also burns alot of oil kinda fast, like you need to at about a quart of oil to it every month and a half, its harsh <_<

Last I checked I get around 300 highway and about 250 or so city. Guess its time to check the car out again.

oh and btw your parts come from teh same place ours do. so there is no difference in quality. its price and service... which if your napa is like our napa. you lose in those markets.
