haha my "spirited" driving isnt anything CRAZY.. i still rarely see 3500rpms. i just like to blip the throttle every once in a while to feel the torque in each gear..

13.8 sucks...

but how do you explain 18mpg using basically all highway miles and no air conditioning?!?!

and if everyone says stock plugs, i guess i will just purchase them from AM for $30.. just figured i might as well upgrade, but if there is no point, than stock it is

Take care when changing out the fuel filter. I had one heel of a time when a freaking o-ring tore to crap. Didn't even see it fall out when I pulled the line off. (covered my face from fuel spray)

i have a 2001 mustang gt has 3.73 gears,and i only got 19mpg highway,at 60mph 2000rpms,just put new plugs,autolite 764s,gapped at .054,but my old plugs were gapped at .045,i wonder if i should have gapped my new plugs at .045?would that make a differance in mpg?

i have the same prob, my gas milage is awful. i cleaned my filter, so u guys saying spark plugs maybe? i have about 96k on the clock.

wow i have never seen below 15 on my car. i normally drive fairly good though, and then get pissed at some slow **** and go ***** out around him, ruining my mileage lol. on the highway i get anywhere from 25-28. i would say check the air filter first, it is probably disgusting. then do everything else that these guys said. and nice looking car, op

thanks

i shoulda posted some results...

i changed my spark plugs, fuel filter, and air filter and i gained back ~2mpg..

i went from 14ish to 16ish... so im seeing about 2mpg better in city driving after the tune up...

car idles a lot smoother since the tune up.. power is there quicker, but i think that's just bc my air filter was BLACK....

tune up was worth it...

nice! what kind of spark plugs? i have the E3
