8mpg?!?!? Damn you drive with your foot in it like all the time? You should be seeing at least 15... hell I get 15 in my '99 Chevy 1500, and that's like a 4500lb truck with a 5.7 V8!

I have that problem with my eclipse too.....the cause in my case was a severely cracked downpipe in 3 spots causing the o2 sensors not to read correctly.

In that state the car would make it about 100-120 miles per tank of gas.

hmm, lets see, i can drive from medford to yc on 3/4 tank, i dont know how much the tank holds so can someone figure that out for me?


btw its 263 miles
