    Gas Mileage

    I know it was a TSB posted for the fuel gauge not being acurate so i wanted to know where i stand...Im at 135 mile and im a lil tiny bit before half....Does that sound about right most of it is city driving no major highway driving yet.

    When my needle sits in the place you described with 135 mostly city driving, I usually finish with about 16--16.5 mpg, sounds normal to me.

    I saw an average of 24 on the highway when I went home for new years, was getting that with 4.10's. I usually see nothing lower than 23, running around 75-80.

    Denso's are great plugs. I have them cause they came with the stage 1 kit form reinhart. I also really like NGK's. With the denso's I felt an immediate differnce in the idle and the car ran alot smoother.
