Ok, I have a 1990 Four cylinder and had to rebuild the engine. It has about 7,000 miles on the rebuilt motor and I understand about breaking in an engine before gas mileage to return to normal and all but this is rediculous. I just filled my tank (with 97% of it being town driving) with 14.06 gallons at 166.9 miles on the trip odometer!!! That rounds UP to 12 miles to the gallon on a four cylinder with an automatic! I know its not my driving because I try not to drive the gutless wonder hard to get better gas mileage. I have replaced about half a dozen parts and the engine/drive train is mechanically sound. Any ideas of what is going on??
