Hummm, I get a pretty consistent 26-27 MPG with my '96 Duratech in 50/50 highway/city driving, and my freinds all call me AJ Foyt Jr., so I know I'm not light on the pedal. I jack rabbit the lights and run 75-80 on the interstate. I keep everything as well tuned and repaired as possible. It has 157,00 miles on it, has 4 wheel disc brakes, and is on it's 4th set of pads / second set of rotors. I've never had a car that came close to this one in the bang-for-the-buck department, and that includes the Mustang GT's I've had (yeah, they were faster, but they cost more to drive and don't handle as well). Go figure.

I was getting around 23.5 - 24.5 mpg city/highway combined and 30 on the highway when I first bought my car a couple of months ago. I ran a bottle of fuel system cleaner through it and started running mostly Shell Vpower and have increased to 26.5-27.5mpg. I got 32mpg from Chicago to Fort Wayne a little after starting the Vpower binge but havent been on a long enough road trip the last few weeks to see if the hwy mileage improved anymore than 32.

Hope ya get it all ironed out. I smother over fuel mileage and would be going bonkers.
