Back again my peeps... I filled up with $40 yesterday and went about 48miles im suppose to get 26mpg if i had i think 13-14gals how did i burn the whole 13-14 gals in 48hwy miles i would say it was a few city miles which is 19mpg still shouldn't have me right above E correct?

+1 I did see a fuel leak on the fuel rail and i do smell gas when the heat is on from time to time... can somebody please help I really need to find the source of this problem because we all know gas is not cheap these days 3.03per gal... so if there is some thing that i can do like replace the hose that connects to the rail or something please let me know whats the best thing to do.

 

...huh..?

How do you figure 48 miles is 19 mpg? And you said it was a "few" city miles. Well, how many? You can't possibly be saying you only got 48 miles on the whole tank..?

 

you don't read the stickies much, do you?

sup james... yeah man im saying that i only drove 48 miles and killed a whole tank of gas. and if u look at the stock specs for a 92 max auto it says 26mgs hwy and 19mpg city... thats where that part came from but im just trying to figure out how on earth I have lost damn near a whole tank of gas bro and i went like nowhere.

 

matt i havent been on here in a long time and needed to get info. thanks tho

 

well you know where the fuel is coming from. seems pretty common-sensical to me to fix the obvious fuel leak... :shrug:

 

Wow you must have a massive, massive fuel leak to leak out 12-13 gallons of fuel. I would think its location should be overwhelmingly obvious/easy to find

 

1. fill the car up with premium
2. get a torch (metal or flaming club, caveman style preferably)
3. start the car
4. poke around for the leak





this will solve your problem..


























..your VG problem, that is

 

ill take some pix 2marrow of where it was coming from and you really could tell unless you looked real hard i guess it was coming out even faster while driving but i did find it and it was a rubber hose i saw in another thread that it a size 5/16 fuel injected hose is that correct?

 

I think I found it... and it was the hose connected to the fuel rail from the filter ill post a pic or two but it was dripping on the dang spark plug good thing it didn't burn the car down...

 

lmao u need help

 

big time
