My fuel mileage has dropped considerably. So much that im getting about 100+ miles less out of a tank of gas. What would cause this to happen? My car still seems to run fine but it just isnt getting good fuel mileage..

 

hey thats crazy mine is real bad too i only get around 230 mpg a fuel tank. that cant be right at all is it?? and i didnt even drive hard on that tank. i know one of my 02 sensor went out but i havent had the extra cash to get it yet and i dont know wich one it is..

what does everyone get outta a tank of gas????

The o2, EGR system, others too can effect milage.

 

I went from 400 miles on a tank of gas to less than 300 on a tank and it doesnt matter how hard i drive it...[:@]

 

I would say the EGR is starting to clog up. It directs gas waste back into the chambers to substitute fuel, that's what helps fuel economy anymore. So the EGR valve, which is right on the block and is most likely "sooted" up <--get it, "sooted=suited" up, lol. Sorry, I'm pooped.
When I pulled mine off, there were 2 centimeters worth of soot/carbon buildup. I saw where the metal started and the buildup started and it was thick!

 

am with silver i think egr my also was cloged i clealed my egr helped it out alot
