That's a first...

[ctrlraven]

First time I have gone over the 300 mile mark without any long trips (all city driving), 320 miles till the low fuel light came on. Lately my mileage has been going up very slowly. I don't know if it had to do with adjusting some stuff in my tune and/or replace the passenger side PCV filter. I know I still have a vacuum leak some where because of the air direction problems I have when my A/C was on, low fan air would come out the vents, get on the gas it would go defroster/floor and would go back to vents when I got off the gas.

I need to replace the driver side PCV filter now and then do a seafoam treatment. With my 320 miles, tank took 16.5 gals at fillup which means I got 19.39mpg.

Man, I wish I could break the 200 mile mark. Someone has to tell me WTF is wrong with my car.

I routinely get 18-19 MPG in town and I don't "baby" it but I don't spin the tires every stop light either.......brisk acceleration and the speed limit +5 MPH usually!!!:beer::bows:

My 2000 CV didn't do as well as the Marauder??:confused:

By looking at your sig, your awaiting a F.I.T install, don't know if you have install already but try switching the brand of gas you use. When I first got mine I used the discount gas brand that I had always filled up with in my other cars and I could never break 200 mile mark, started using Exxon, Shell, Hess and started getting around 250 mile mark.

I get 250-300 on a tank too, on the highway...

:D

I usually get 250-280 a tank around 17 in the City

I'm being serious Steve, I barely get on it too. There are weeks when I barely push my pedal to get up to speed to see if it really is my foot, and I still can't get 200 miles in a full tank. I honestly can't figure out why. Do you really think it's "junk" gas? I also use the discounted gas (BJ's Wholesale Club member) and 93 is roughly $2.69-2.79. I wonder if I should go elsewhere, to a name brand station and try that?

[ctrlraven]

If you have a Shell or Exxon near by fill up there and add one can of Seafoam along with it. It sounds like just bad gas. I usually always try to fill up at the same station but their is 3 that are just within 100 ft of each other and I get the same results from all three so I always go with who ever is cheaper or has less cars at.

Also wouldn't hurt to get a couple of cans of SeaFoam and use a couple of cans back to back with your fill-ups. I use 2 cans back to back with my middle of the month fill-ups (I fill up every week) just to keep things clean.

[Raudermaster]

Wait, you mean the Sea Foam that goes through the PCV valve, or is there some sort of can that you can add as an additive with fuel?

you are not alone:confused:...my MM is my daily driver and i dont even get in it alot and i still suck the H*LL out gas...o well im not complaining cause i love my MM and wouldnt have it any other way

[KillJoy]

OMG!!!

Iffin you ain't "Motorheading" your car, you MAY have an issue.

:D

Do you have a dyno tune?

Switch to "premium" premiun fuel, if you can. Bobo gas COULD be an issue. Maybe not though.....

Once you get that blower installed, if you have not yet, got a DYNO TUNE. No other way to do it....IMO.

:up:

You can add Seafoam literally anywhere, just pick a spot

You know I don't have it in yet! I'm still N/A as of now.

[ctrlraven]

Yeah the same SeaFoam you can run through the PCV you can just pour right into the gas tank.

Mine is daily driven, just click 80,320 miles which is 40k miles I have put on the car since I bought 12/02/2005 so gas mileage is important to me with doing 5k miles every 3 months give or take.

[Raudermaster]

So can I just pour the whole can in my tank, or should I only do a little?

[ctrlraven]

Pour 1 whole can in before a fill up. Get 2-3 cans and use them back to back so you can really get it through the whole system and let it do its work. Try it and post up your results.

[Raudermaster]

Put a can in and filled up at Shell. Will do a few more fill ups with Seafoam and see what my results are!
