Im only getting 19-22 mpg out of my 240 and it's all stock. what is normal and how can i get my ride upt to par?

 

is taht mostly city, or mostly highway, do you have a heavy foot, or drive like a grandma, for people to help, we gotta know more information.

 

Tune up time. Hell, with the mods I did to my motor, I upped my mpg to over 25 mpg, lol.

 

my car gets about the same, 19-22mpg. i recently degraded to a factory intake system, rather than a f'd up cold air intake. i'm hoping that with the factory intake i'll get a little more. i drive to work on freeway and from work on streets, around 8 miles each way.
how did you get 25mpg on your car man? i'm thinking electric fans might help, but not by much...

 

i dont use the a/c. windows up with the fan turned on. got a normal foot. sometimes i get into it, but mostly about 1/4 of the way down on take off. i don't have any mods and those numbers were highway.

 

get a mr2 lol
30 miles to the gallon

 

If i wanted ungodly gas milage, id buy a honda. Hondas Suck!!!!!!!

i love my 240 and i know that it's capable of more than what im getting.

 

“dmytry_arnason” asked a question and did not get normal answer basically no body know **** here all I see people brag about their mileage who gets 25 or 30 but know body solves the problem.

 

or how the did it to get to 25 or 30 mpg

 

check your 02 sensor

 

I said tune up time, so don't be saying I didn't try to help. What I did to get 25 mpg, usa AC instead of rolling windows down, and other mods to the motor which include header, 3 inch cat, K&N filter, new o2 sensor, fidanza lightweight flywheel. And this is me beating on the thing frequently revving to 5k

EDIT: I could probably get more once I check out my fouled sparkplugs.

 

i got around 32 mpg on the way back from florida and its a stock 98 besides a k&n intake with 144,000 miles not to bad i dont guess
it wont be 32 for long

 

You're certainly correct there.

I just got 38 MPG on the highway (Canadian gallons, a bit smaller than U.S. gallons) in my 95 Zenki with 171K KMs against wind, loaded down with stuff in the trunk for the weekend. Something's definitely wrong if you're only getting 22 MPG!

 

i don't know. i haven't calculated it this last trip. I haven't filled it up yet. i dumped a bottle of lucas injector cleaer in it. i got 275 miles on 3/4 of a tank. how does the O2 sensor ork in corolation to my gas milage?

 

If your O2 sensor is bad, it'll send the wrong readings to the ECU therefore making your engine run less efficient thererfore burning more gas.
