Could it also be the o2 sensor? i think mine is bad because i'm getting 13
MPG fer the last 6 months no matter how I drive it... (may be reading lean,
cuasing more fuel to dump in) maybe some are reading rich, causing them to
dump minimal fuel in? =/
just a thought... I'm gettin a new o2 sensor to try and improve my Gas
Milage =) I'll let yall know
