man before i went f/i i could go 380 miles on regular unleaded (bout $23/tank @ $2.02/gal)

now i get 320 miles on premium (around $30/tank @ 2.24/gal)

*mind u i still had 1-2 gallons left in tank. (i start sweating if im driving 30 miles into having my tank light on.

i used to get 25mpg, about the same as Forkee. but that was all city driving for me.

im sure if i had used a smaller turbo, gas milage would have been lower.

oh and btw, i am still getting 25mpg, damn new engine break in period

when i first got the car back i was getting 19mpg!

Stop complaining, this is what I pay for my 3GSE which returns about 310 miles to a full tank.

Regular Unleaded:
£0.79 = $1.40 per litre
£2.99 = $5.30 per gallon
Full 60 Litre tank: £47.40 = $83.98

Premium (which I prefer):
£0.86 = $1.52 per litre
£3.25 = $5.76 per gallon
Full 60 Litre tank: £51.60 = $91.42

You yanks have it cheap. >frown.gif>
It's true, we do have it cheap- but thats because our president likes guns and likes to use guns. I don't agree with it, but it certainly keeps gas prices down (Of course, here in CA I pay 2.29... >frown.gif>
Hey, I'm only getting 25 mpg and I do not have forced induction. I've been getting only like 280 miles to a tank of gas. I mostly do city driving. What could be causing it? I know I've gotten over 400 miles to a tank on the highway before. I bought my car used and I've never had it tuned up (plugs or wires), only an air filter.

Man I get horrible mileage with my 95 st auto, compared to what you guys are saying. I fill it full and only get about 200 miles before I'm at or below a quarter tank. I should really be getting more than that.

Any ideas what could be causing it? It's all city miles, by the way.

I get about 340-370 miles per fill up, but about half of it is city driving.

Bad gas mileage can be caused by alot of things, your tires, alignment, bad plugs, wires, dirty air filter.
expect to pay a lot more for gas if you get a turbo because you will have to use premium gas.

I get about 200 miles on a tank of premium at $2.35 gallon or whatever it is at now.
