I think there might be something wrong with my car cause i get 12 miles per gallon in the city and even tho i have a heavy foot, i dont speed in the city. any thought?!

Could be alot of things. What year, how many miles, any mods, auto or 5 speed, when was the last time you did a tune up (fuel filter, spark plugs, wires)??

Your right foot is the problem

With an Automatic and 4:10s and a heavy foot I don't get ANYthing close to that bad??

When was your last tune up? (plugs, wires, fuel filter, air filter?)

Besides the basic tune up try backing off the gas pedal a little. I've gotten 23mpg and I have full off road exhaust, 3.73 gears, and 89 performance tune through a 5spd tranny. That's mixed driving and using my heavy right foot.

+1. Even with my cam and other mods, extremely heavy right foot I still manage about 17 city 25 highway (at 80)

Replace your plugs and wires, especially if you don't know the last time they were done.


Also, don't forget to check your blinker fluid and muffler bearings, I heard they can drop your mpgs.
