Ok this last week my car for some reason or another went from about 100 miles per quarter of a tank to 150 miles per quarter of a tank... just out of nowhere.. i didnt change anything i didnt replace anything i may have cursed at traffic a bit more but thats about it... Anyone know what it could be? I thought it might be the tripometer might be off but when i went on my trip to the dunes the mileage compared to my sisters car was almost the same.. any idea?
EDIT: oh i also noticed my engine temp running slightly higher than normal if that helps... i definately am not complaining BUT... its still pretty weird.. This post has been edited by FreddyTheOthaMeat: Jun 24, 2008 - 3:54 PM -------------------- Fred

Check if your engine is running lean. That could also be the factor that your motor is using less fuel. I dunno, this is what I heard.
