okay , just found out how much mine waists , its 25mpg(city no hwy),, thats okay considering its already time for an oil change, tranny fluid flush, and heavy rims(17's)and sice our cars have a 13.2 gallon tank , im getting about 330 miles per tank(city)

 

i doubt they are geared differently, but the hill variable and such does make sense. i drive all flat though, there aren't really any inclines or declines. minus offramps, that is.

 

No sht? Our cars have 13.2 gallon tanks? I thought they were 12? WTF? lol

Yeah in my area its all hills.

 

Wow that's bad gas mileage. I was getting 28 MPG with my lancer and it was pretty damn modified. You're getting the same mileage as my WRX at the moment.

 

yea i looked it up in www.edmunds.com

 

yea it sux but i hope it gets better after an oil change and tranny flush

 

How many miles do you have? Timing could be messed up. Try a fuel system cleaner, air filter could be causing restriction.
And dont forget to disengage the parking brake.

 

i have 100k and yea the e-brake isn't on,lol , how can i check if its still on timing?? (my car is super quiet , no engine noise at all)and btw i already checked the timing belt, its like new

 

It can be checked with a timing light. But it might be a better idea to run it in to a shop. They might be able to find another problem.
On aside note PCV could cause a drop in mileage.= change valve.
Sticky piston rings could cause a loss in compression.= Use engine flush.

 

is there a way to see if everything lines up?? like the honda's?

 

By lines up do you mean the timing? If the car sounds and runs smooth that is probally not the issue.
I think PCV, Air filter and fuel system cleaner are a starting point. If you purchased the car from new and this is the way it has been the whole time I dont see any changes in sight. If you got this used then it probally only needs a tune up.

 

ive had it since 70k , already did iridium plugs, spark plug wires,coils,short ram intake and i already used sea foam, but wat i was thinking is that i need a tranny flush.Becuz it delays shifts and shifting is getting rougher

 

I say go for it.

 

Could try sea foaming the engine and seeing if that helps.

 

I have an 02 es stick, sri, throttle body coolant bypass, rrm piggy v2 on 89 oct. Right now im just barely over the half tank mark and ive done 195 miles, equal city and highway driving. ive been driving it easy usually shifting at 2.5k to see what my mileage is. I ll post my results when i fill up.
