Well i drive a 97 GT, bone stock 5sfe w/ bosh plat. +4's, Injen shortram, Greddy sp catback, and DG performance Test pipe .... and on a full tank of 92 Shell V-power i'm getting less that 300 miles to the tank :'( .
What should i look at first? The plugs? ... O2 sensor? i know i have a small exhaust leak somewhere, but it couldnt cause all that. Any suggestions?
