ya lay off the gas petal. also you get worse fuel milage in winter due ot the cold weather and winter blend of gasoline.

but ive always gotten atleast 280-320 miles per tank depending on the driving im doing. city vs highway

i have a question....all i did was take of the top of the intake box and put a big filter in the bottom of the box connected to the intake tube, would that mess any thing up or should i put it back to normal.

Probably a fuel filter and air filter.

I find with mine if I do nothing but city driving for a few weeks it starts to get shitty mileage. So I take it for a long highway trip and by the time I get home my mileage has improved again.

Mine is starting to get better gas mileage after I changed the spark plugs.... I might need to change the fuel filter, but I heard that's a pain to do....
