Thanks to all of my scion family that helped me solve my bad gas mileage. It wasn't the wheels, I have 18 x 7s, it wasn't the way i was driving, it was simply bad plugs(Bosh platinum.) Those are very very bad for this car. I learned and want to help pass it on. I drove to the dealer and bought fact spec plugs and now only death will do us part.

I can now go 40 to 45 miles before the needle drops down to the first full mark. Oh yeah needle sits between the F mark and first full bar, when filled up. It is off the chain. I am now back to 30 to 32 miles per gallon. I am loving it.

We are stayig together. So now we are one and hope to continuse hooking it up. Thanks all ffor your help.

 

glad to hear it.

the smallest thing can make the biggest difference.

Good to know! This just convinces me I need to replace my plugs even more urgently...

I'm about to hit 50K on the OEM plugs! Am I a terrible person?
