There are many things that can cause excess fuel consumption . Weak Compression , leaky injectors, bad O2 sensors , Bad spark , Clogged convertors , Bad T-stat , Engine Timing , Dirty Air filter , Fuel Pressure ect ect ect
u know i've tried that already. so far i've replaced the spark plugs and wires, distributor cap and rotor, cleaned the a/f. now i gotta check all other stuff and see what the hell is wrong with my car cuz it feels like its misfiring and when i changed the plugs i saw the spark plug in cylinder #4 came out black and i was told that its running rich. i'll keep on working on it cuz its really comsumin' alot of gas.
