Re: need better mpg outta my 02 GTP

How do you drive. If you are off and on the gas, it will show lower mileage. Also, your mileage showed is an av. of city and highway mileage. If you are beating on your car in the city, then it would take a long drive on the highway for av MPG to go up.
I would saymore then likely, your city mileage is bad. Take it out on highway and drive at one speed for a long time and see if it goes up.
