Which way did you do it? In the gas, in the oil, or through the intake?

no, i drive the same, i actually have to rive slower because its 35 on post. but 13 mpg? i doubt it would get that low, i've taken her on the highway, just to test it out to see if i gotbetter on highway, its about the same..in fl at 325 i had 1/4 of a tank left. when i got here TX gas mileage dropped about 15-20 miles, figured t was because of the diffence in altitude. and slowly it would go lower and lower per fill up. until the beginning of OCT, where i would get 200 mp
t
., and its stayed around there. there is another guy here on post with a 4 cyl 4 door 5mt, and he gets around 300..
*edit* lol just noticed i put 2/4 on the pother post i meant 1/4... lol
FIXED (200mpg to 200 mpt, or did you mean 200 mph?
jk)
Yeah there is DEF somethin wrong there... you have an I4 right? I dont think I could get that bad mileage if I ran around with it PEGGED all the time...
I already made the funny and corrected him Noob...

Seafoam = Bad
Even with my heavy sedan and making about 325 whp with the K24A2 and supercharger, I got around 28-30 mpg. There are a few things that could be causing the poor mileage. You could have a clogged cat. Your alignment could be off (not likely). Your fuel pressure could be higher than normal and you could be running rich.
