Reply With Quotewith my new exhaust setup and shortram/cai when its not raining i get about 200-250 miles to half a tank.
What kind of mpg do do you guy get with the early model 7g's? i'm looking into getting a car to drive to work so it'll most likely be a high mileage 94 or 95. I dont think i ever even thought about how many i used to get with my 98.

What he is not telling you is that you do get 200-250 on the first half a tank but you still dont even get 300 out of the whole tank.....

is it not good to top off ur tank or do u do it for weight purposes?
Well ive had alot of shit done to it.. And i still dont even get 300 mpg.... I think its time to clean the fuel system. But hell if i can get more out of this car than what i get tell me what the fuck i can do. Cause all the ppl ive talked to tell me they get like 270 to the fillup.
How big are the gas tanks?
16.9 gallons but from E to F is like 12 and some change
I got 375 miles for my 8G 7 then the gas light came on. But also note that I was prolly doing 80mph for about 300 of those.

once the handle pops thats topping it off. when you keep squeezing its pointless. i dont race my car so weight doesnt bother me. on a normal day i drive 2 miles total. to work, home for lunch, back to work, then home. but on the weekends i drive like theres no tomorrow. a normal weekend i put over 200 miles on my car.

Well I have replaced both O2 sensors, All new exhaust system so no leaks, cleaned the TB good, PCV valve, Lucas Fuel System Cleaner, etc. Its all in good maintence.
On my 96 Galant (5 speed) I was getting about 22-23mpg when it wasn't turbo. Though...when I turbo'ed the car I am getting 24-26 mpg, but that normal driving off heavy load and boost MOST of the time.

I'll mention my freak car, though it skews the data:
38 mpg on average up to a max of 42 strictly highway driving. Lowest recorded was 28 mpg driving around in ATL for an entire day.
I have no idea how far I can go on a tank of gas, I usually fill up when I get to 1/4 tank
that ~3/4 of a tank gets me ~450 miles or roughly 1 week's worth of driving.
Staying busy is important. After all, idle hands spend time at the genitles.

:shock: Dude..your MPG is just as good as most of the "ECO friendly" cars today if not better.

I get about 250 or so miles per tank. Not toooo bad.
7g for life!
I get about 19.23 mpg which is about 250 mile or so. I am not sure how far I can go cuz my gas gauge doesnt work. But when I go on a trip I still get about 260 miles or so (again not sure how much further I can go) doing 100mph the whole time. I have a new engine, synthetic oil, intake, full exhaust.
Proto, I think your car is an enigma. You sure about that mileage? Do you zero out when you get gas?
