Angry Gas Mileage, '91 E

On this '91 Sentra E I have, ratings say I should get 29-39 mpg on it. I am getting around 20-23. What am I doing wrong? I've tried to drive conservatively, shifting into neutral when possible, any tips? What can I do to get better mileage, upgrades, etc. And please include prices. I've also heard that more expensive gas (Chevron) will get you better mileage, is this true (how much better)? Thanks

Re: Gas Mileage, '91 E

no higher octane is not true. check for a basic tune up(spark plugs, oil, oil filter, distributor, and wires for corrosion) for upgrades there is a thread out called make sticky by fugiot...

Re: Gas Mileage, '91 E

Wow, thank you for that thread. SO much useful info. And I didn't mean higher octane, standard unleaded. One place charges $2.43, while the Chevron across the street charges $2.63 for the same octane.

Re: Gas Mileage, '91 E

price in gas doesn't really matter...i guess it all depends on your location and what kind of gas they give you...ie i can tell what gas station gives me good gas by driving with it, but another gas station same octane, my car seems a little sluggish. its all up to what your car responds to
