My Car Has Very Poor Fuel Economy! Pls Help!!! by leksonltd: 10:00am On Jan 30, 2016 |
I use a Toyota corolla 2001/ 2002 model. The normal fuel consumption is 35MPG on highway, and 30MPG within city. Unfortunately, mine consumes 2.5 gallons(10litres) to cover 32 miles. The car works normal, catalyst is ok, airflow meter works, no leaks on exhaust. Pls help make meaningful suggestions.Thanks |

leksonltd: . . . city driving different from city driving. Lagos 'stop-and-go' traffic does not qualify for city driving, don't expect a better mileage driving in such situation. Take your car for a spin on the highway and you'll be surprised. |
