Gas Milage Reports

[skotmxpx]

Alright, it's time for the ultimate question: What is your Blazer's gas milage like? If you don't know city/highway, just do the average (miles/tanksize). Also list your engine/year/miles. This could be quite interesting and helpful or just plain embarassing.

Whats the formula for calculating your mileage?

[skotmxpx]

1) Fill up your tank
2) Reset Trip Meter
3) Drive for however long you want
4) Go back to the gas station and fill up, again.
5) Write down how many gallons you put in (ex. 9 gal.)
6) Take your trip meter miles and divide that by how many gallons you put in. That's the average mpg you get.

Gregg...
Milage varies 12 to 24...
If you are getting...bad...gas milage...
200 per tank...something is wrong...
i.e. leaky internal fuel lines...
leaky fuel pressure regulator
