I'm averaging 28 mpg overall, which varies between city driving and semi-stop and go highway driving. Just running regular unleaded (87 octane). I get about 35 on open road trips.

I just averaged 36.4 MPG on my last tank of gas. This was with my friend and I playing with my car in the rain, and driving in traffic.
 I dunno how I'm doing it, but it's amazing.-Matt |

I'll post mine In a week or so, Im at a 1/4 of a tank right now. I just replaced the spark plug's(Bosch dual platinum, wouldve got the quad's but I wa short on cash that day) and the fuel filter about a year+ ago, I also use that fuel Injector cleaner stuff too from time to time. What else could you do to Improve you gas milage? What would you have to replace? New Injector's? Spark plug wire's?

My first fill up after I picked up the car from Coomer was something like 37MPG, but now that I am comfortable with the car I don't have to always granny drive. It doesn't matter if I am shifting at 3K, 4.5K, or 7K... always 30MPG. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
