You must run the dogpiss out of yours then...

I beat on mine a little bit and still get 230 out of her before the light comes on. Run you tank til lempty. Alot of times the gauges are messed up...

i still get over 300 a tank with a mix of driving styles and highway/city
sn95's are 16gallon

I have a v6 98 and its currently getting horrid mpg's, something must be very wrong. I keep meticulous notes on my cars' fuel economy. I just filled it completely full and only got 110miles on half a tank.

v6=13mpg

Yeah Gas mileage drives me crazy with my car too. I get 17 MPG on 93 economy tune without beating it and coasting to stop lights. If I drive it hard i'm lucky to break 12

Also another thing is, what gas station do you get gas. If i use swiftys gas i usually get around 16 mpg in town, if i use Shell gas i usually get around 18 mpg in the city. Fill up at different gas stations, and always reset your trip odometer, and see which one works best for you. I also run 93 octane, with a diablosport 93 octane tune.
