I decided to pay close attention to my mileage this week. I'm driving a 94 GT 5-Speed. I don't really go over 70-80 on the highway..but I drive "peppy" on the surface roads (can't help but have fun in the Celica).. I'm getting about 280 a tank. With recent plugs, wires, rotor, cap, distributor. How's your mileage this summer and how do you drive? -------------------- My new, blue spark plug wires gave my Celica, roughly, 250 more horsepower..

He's driving an ST. It all depends on your driving. My city driving RPMs are almost always above 3k. And I do mostly city driving. If I took it really easy - drove soft, shifted soft and lightened up on the gas foot, my mileage would jump up considerably. In the situation where I am doing highway driving, I get about 31 MPG. -------------------- My new, blue spark plug wires gave my Celica, roughly, 250 more horsepower..
