I've noticed that my fuel economy has gone down, even after a fuel injection service and numerous fuel injector cleaners thru the fuel system.

The sensor on my car has something on the top that says Caution:Not adjustable, where as the part that I bought is too small and doesn't have those words on the top. Dang it! This sux. The picture in my manual has the...
