Default Re: Gas mileage

I was always taught to check the basics; air filter, plugs (and gap), wire set etc... When I changed my plugs (and there are MANY posts on plug types and gaps), and put good wires on (also many posts on the poor quality chrysler wire sets), I notice a great improvement in performance.

Also look around at all the vacuum hoses to make sure their all connected.

Don't expect to get great mileage; I've got 100K miles on my 03 GT and usually get about 26 HighWay and 23-24 mixed. It sucks but I've read worse.

15mpg doesn't sound right, even if new but check the basics.

Post back to let us know how you made out....

Good Luck - Duff
