so what seems to be my problem? i usually shift at 2k rpm.

a fox tank can carry what, 14 gallons? so 150miles/14gallons is a little less than 11mpg. quite pathetic with a n/a 302.

1979 to 1981 V-8, V-6, 2.3L Turbo - 12.5 gallon tank. (1979 & 1980 2.3L NON turbo cars had 11.5 gallon.....)

1982 to 1993 V-8 - 15.4 gallon tank.


I don't care what the replacement part capacity is/claims to be..........these are what came from the Factory. Period.
