Ideal Revs to maintain for best fuel economy
hi,
I dont have enough experience with or knowledge of manual transmissions, though I drive one now... tell me, to obtain the best fuel economy in city driving, at what RPM should i keep my engine
So far, i keep it between 2.2K - 3K rpm
What about you?
Secondly, i just got the car serviced as recommended by Nissan for 120K (same as a 30K), and a few days later the engine service light came on.. i'm thinking its the O2 sensor moreover, my fuel economy is not as good! are they related? Any advice?
thanks

1. 2-3k is a good shift-point for daily driving/fuel economy
2. O2 sensor (front ones) will affect fuel economy.
3. Read the stickies - pull the codes stored in the ECU and post back with them.

Check the stickes and pull the codes for you Check engine light. Interpret the code, and repair.
