Re: Milage on 4lt. engine
That's open to mean two things.....
Gas mileage wise, we get 26+ on the highway with about 18 mpg overall.
Life wise, our 88 has over 315K km on it and is still running strong
only using a liter of oil between changes. Most of that goes out the
air filter box. If yours spits oil into the air filter, it usually just
means the back CCV tube to the valve cover is plugged with gunk. I need
to clean mine again.
