Steve and Greg,
Mine has always been between 8 and 10, so if you find the answer I'm ready to try anything, but mostly I don't pay attention, otherwise it would drive me nuts.

I get about 11mpg around town. I wish I could get 15-16mpg!!

Seriously, I would check the standard tune-up stuff. Assuming all other systems check out, possibly your driving style is a bit more aggressive this tank???

GregT


about 5mpg.

around town averaging 11.5. Used to be about 15-16.

Possible bad sensor(s)??????

I can virtually see the gas guage go down. No gas leak smells.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Steve Cohen
