Gas mileage
I get roughly 18 mpg. that cant be normal on my stock KA24E, can it? It was changed from an auto to a Five-speed. Could it be the ECU? like could it still have the auto ECU or would I know for sure? The car runs great but the fan on the front of the motor seems to be on all the time. Anyone got any Ideas?

Re: Gas mileage
no thats not good i get great miliage im not sure what but would say around 30ish i get about 300-350 to the tank and fan is a clutch fan i believe. i wouldnt think an auto ecu would kill your milage like that. my car had a prob for a while. i burnt gas bad. even on idle it was puffin black. i played with connecters and such on motor and it ran good. musta been loose conection on mafs

Re: Gas mileage
could it be the O2 sensor? like maybe its busted and then it runs way rich or something. but I would smell gas all the time right? well I do want to swap it with an sr so I will deal with the bad gas mileage if I camt do something about it that wouldnt be a big deal. I mean the engine has like 190000 miles on it.

Re: Gas mileage
damn, im getting like 230ish per tank. I feel like im getting jipped here. What exactly could be a source for these problems? Im gonna clean my MAFS, and maybe pick up a new O2 senser.

Re: Gas mileage
I used to only get about 240 till I changed my fuel filter and realized that the stock fuel line had gotten really old and cracked and was gushing a shit load of fuel.
Check it out, the best $3 upgrade u can do to increase gas mileage. Hope that helps.
