I get about 19 miles per gallon but I haven't done an electrical tune up yet........ Spark plugs are bad!!!!!!!!! I know this because the engine at low idle stalls at warm up!!!!!!!!!

found out why my mpg is so damn bad, fuel injector closest to the front of the engine is leaking...going to replace the o-ring this week and hopefully fix it up, if not looks like I'm just going to be replacing all the injectors
