i get about 160 per tank, and today when i was filling up, it would give me like a little gas, and then it would click like it was full, i messed around with the pump for a little and it would go for like 30 secs, then stop like the tank was full, i know it wasnt because i was at like a 1/4 tanks left, and had only put in $10 so far...

I have had the same problem ever since i changed my fuel pump. I think I must have bent the float rod or something

of course you will get terrible mileage in 2nd gear even at those rpms... second gear is what like a 2.5: 1 ratio?? means the motor is turning 2.5 turns for every 1 turn of the driveshaft.

go to 5th gear its like .8: 1 so .8 turns of the motor is 1 of the shaft... much more efficient obviously


and 120 on a half is bad... i get that when driving my car as hard as possible. maybe not even that bad

driving normal around town should be close to 200 on a half in mine... (mine seems to drop off faster after a half) but i have gotten 400 on a tank before.

never gotten below 19mpg even driving realllly hard. normally 23-25 around town and 27-28 on the highway (no cruise) at 75-80
