13BAce, is that you're vert, the coupe, or your TII? My TII gets 7 almost 8 mpg!!?! I've had to fill up twice. The first time, I went 116 miles and filled up 15 gallons. Second time I went 109 miles and filled up 13-14 gallons. Second I spent half the tank on the freeway.

possible that you are running a tiny bit rich there? at least I feel a little better about my 14-17 mpg in my N/A hmm, wonder if I might have the rich problem, any clues on how to fix that? short of getting an S-AFC? which I would like to do anyway, but need to justify the cost.

That's my convertible. It sounds like there's something wrong with your car. If it runs fine then you may have a fuel leak somewhere.
