What do you think can be causing poor gas mileage?? The car is a 96' GT 5spd with 65k miles. Its seems to be getting around 18mpg in the city. I would think it would get better than that!! I can get better than that with my 3000GT. Could Oxygen sensor be the problem? Anyone else have bad gas mileage?

yeap..about 250miles to the tank.. Sucky! MAn, i looked up the o2 sensor and its freakin 135$!!! doubt we will be changing that anything soon. I think i may put my spark plugs in this weekend and see if that makes a difference. They are probably original plugs.
