I have 92 GSR with 143k miles
Just had the timing belt replaced along with the water pump and new muffler
car seemed to be running great
i filled the car up last week and only got 21.1mpg and again the same thing this week!!
i’m not driving hard at all.
rev are low when idling under 1Grand in neutral.
in town driving so i know that the millage wont be as good as highway.
was was getting close to 312m/tank now 220m/ tank.
what should i check?
what do you guys get?
what could be wrong?
Change oil, check tire pressure / alignment, check to see if any brake calipers are sticking onto the rotors. The new castrol 10w-30 gives me a 10% mpg boost every time.
Like all said a good tune-up would usually fix the problem.
My say is to check your timing to see if its retard to 14 or lower if so set it back to 16 stock or advance it to 18 which can also help on giving better gas.
Timing, Spark plug old or needs regap, Tire pressure set to 32 is best.
And make sure not to caryy anything you don’t need in trunk other then spare and tools.
