Fuel mileage?

[SMOKEDYA]

Any ideas on what kind of fuel milage i should get out of a 92 notch with the 2.3 and a 5 SPD? If i remember right i got a 1/2 tank left and i put 80? miles on it ? I would think you should get better milage then that out of a 4 banger? peace

Uh, yeah you should be getting better than 11 mpg. Mine used to get 30. I think your O2 sensor might be shot.

No way to tell what your current mileage is until you refill the tank and divide the miles driven by the amount you put in the tank...it could just be that your gauge isn't very accurate...I used to get about 100 out of the first "half" of the tank and 150-200 out of the second half...

So with the o2 sencer being bad wouldit cause it to get bad milage? I ran it threw emisions the other week and it passed fine, BUT the check engine light is on? peace

Yes, it would cause bad gas mileage...no reason to chase a problem if you don't actually "know" that it exists though...you need to verify your mileage first.

Scan the codes and see why the CE light is on...
