Question

i knew it, i used to drive my grandma's 87 5sp pulsar (which was hella sick btw) and i could go like 2 weeks on a tank. anybody know what the problem could be ? i just had the oil and filter changed less than a week ago. i wanna try that seafoam stuff c if that helps. and i know there is a gasket that needs to be replaced cuz the previous owner told me but he said that it wasnt nethin major, he took it to the dealership and they said it would eventually have to be replaced but it was ok to drive as long as i made sure i had plenty of oil in the engine.

I get that with a bad alignment, crossthreaded sparkplug, 87 octane arco gas, and not shifting over 3.5k on freeways and around 2.5k on city streets. It can be better. I've gotten 28mpg on the way to and from Vegas.

I get about 20mpg. I drive all back roads and through town so lots of stop and go generally shifting at 3k. It's not bad, but there's times when i miss my vw Golf, I swear that thing got 35+ mpg.

Between 23.2 and 23.7 MPG, and I drive 160 miles a day commuting. I can reliably go 350 miles on a tank, but that's as far as I dare push it.
