I think it’s fuel consumption is fair enough. But what do I know? Let the ogas educate us.

Do not overwork your vehicle all in the name of fuel economy. Mowe to Ibafo to and fro is not a short trip even without traffic. I believe that is fair enough. Then it still took you back to Ketu.. C'mon man... Enjoy your ride with fantastic fuel economy.

Haaaa.
To achieve this.
You must have been very gentle on the Throttle.
And you didn't use AC too.


But if this your calculation is true then your fuel economy is perfect.

So now you can use the same fuel quantity for same distance after changing the O2 sensors?

Hmm... In six months you will have a whole nother set of problems. That kind of had mileage in a sienna with Nigerian fuel is not sustainable long term. Also, keep letting your tank stay below one quarter and just save money for new fuel pump in the next fuel months.
