Holy shit I think my Buick drinks fuel worse than an alcoholic drinks alcohol.
Today I got paid and the fuel gauge was on 1/4, yet I've only driven the car 107 miles since the last fill up. I figured maybe the gas gauge was reading wrong.
So i fill it up, and it took 10 gallons to put it at full. If I'm not mistake, that's over 1/2 of the gas tank!!If my calculations are right, it says I'm only getting 10 mpg. That seems a bit unrealistic for a V6.
Now granted, my car has really only been driven short distances since filling up, it has 60 lb injectors, I also have a 2800 stall, but I have stock sized tires and a stock rear end with the factory BRF200-4R trans. The car has barely seen any speeds above 35 mph since the last time i filled it up. My e brake isn't dragging, that I know of.Car weight is roughly 3700's with me in it.
My AFR's are usually in the upper 13's to lower 15's. My car does emit stinky exhaust that smells a tad rich, but then again my car doesn't have a cat. Also i have a turbo tweak chip which i am told burns a tad on the rich side.
What gives? Shouldn't the fuel mpg be a little better than 10 mpg?
