    help with low mileage

    Right now i`m looking for some reasons why my fuel consumption is sooo very low like 320 km to 335 or so to a full tank of un-leaded gas.Now i do alot of short runs but that shit still still not right .I changed plugs today next i hope to service my injectors any help will be appreciated. Then i`m hoping to locate a gas filter for my 1997 japaneese VRG galant to purchase. But i`m thinking that my air sensor is faulty & in my country TRINIDAD & TOBAGO the firm don`t support foreign used vehicles & they are the only one with the correct tools & they don`t have the error codes for my car so PRESSURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    A dirty throttle body will lower your mileage dramatically. You may want to remove the intake and clean it. Also, what condition is your air filter in??

    Genuine experience carries a lot more credibility than the ability to answer a question.

    If you have bad O2 sensors then it might br running too rich (and wasting gas). Check the usual stuff.... plugs, wires, filters, and tire pressure....
