WHT? how could you ask if thats normal??? i get about 90 miles more or less per quarter of tank, of course thats not normal, either your gas gauge if broken or you have a hole the size of an apple, get that looked at ASAP

Thats not normal at all i dont think. Even with a crazy driving style, you should be doing 250-300 miles per tank?.. Try refilling it up all the way to the F and seeing how that works.

Driving crazy on 10 gallons it wouldn't be unheard of to only get 120 miles. Several months ago I was only averaging just over 14mpg a tank.

Either way, I think something is wrong with your car.

I get around 100 miles per quarter tank usually, average.

But I shift at 1800rpm and never ever stomp the gas. Just lately, I have an exhaust leak and have $11 till thursday.

Therefore, My recommendation is to get an exhaust leak.

Haha I was kidding.

Ehh, I installed test pipes and I have an exhaust leak somewhere(maybe).

I dunno, I trqd everything down to spec and still have a really annoying hiss on decell.

I haven't been driving it much.

BTW I'm not poor I just did a really crappy job of adding/subtracting this month.
