x2. you should be getting more than twice that many miles per tank even if you drive like an ass. Check for Codes to see what issues you're having and be sure to run the cylinder balance portion of the test. let us know.

all i have is flowmasters on my car and i get 14 mpg with regular driving, getting on the gas occasionally

Iownastang · October 23rd, 2007, 10:23 PM

that is still bad.

haywood11 · October 25th, 2007, 07:19 PM

ok i replaced the plugs and wires i also had a idling prob so i replaced the tps and still have rough idle and when i get on the gas, you can smell unburnt fuel.

dont LX's come with 2.73's stock? is it different between the GT and LX, or do they all come stock with 3.27's? cause im pretty sure i read somewhere that our cars came stock with 2.73's..

Iwannagofast · October 25th, 2007, 10:34 PM
