Fuel Mileage

i see you have an AF gauge... what is your LTFT? and yes with a 160 your prob not getting up to temp and running more fuel then needed. swap to a 180 at min and possibly the 195 for winter. even down here in FL i dont recommend a 160. i ran on on my Z when my trany was bad, as when the trany got to 185 it would slip. so the 160 gave me more time to keep it from slipping and also this is on the DOHC that had AL heads that cooled better then our iron heads.

to the OP. the Comp G has 3.29 gears vs the GTP's 2.92's... this will hurt HW mpg and may help in town. the gear swap helps low end acceleration.

How do I get my LTFT with my scan gauge?
 
So I drove 116 miles on 5.6 gallons which comes out to 20.7 mpg. Seems pretty low to me for driving 70hwy/30c?
 
Yah, and I never thought my dic was accurate bc it always says 21mpg. Idk what's up. I've had this car for 6 months, I believe it has a 180 thermostat but heard that doesn't matter much.
 


well i went through 11.78 gallons of gas, and only got 192 miles. the math says 16.2 mpg avg, the dic says 17.8. off by 2 mpg.

this is a good mix of a 1 mile drive to work, and 20 mile highways runs that are all hills.
