Gas Mileage sux!

Ok, so before anybodys says "lead foot", NO, gas is expensive enough so i dont have a heavy foot. What i do have is brand new spark plugs, CAI with new filter. I'm getting about 220-250 on a full tank commuting 2 days a weeks putting 100 miles of that on the freeway. The rest is in town.

Should i change out my Fuel Filter and or Fuel pump??

You might try some seafoam in the gas. Check out this thread:

How many miles are on your car? Running stock sized tires?

Oh man, not another one of these posts

220-250 on a full tank? What's a full tank? 17.1 gallons? 14 gallons? 10 gallons?

What does the MID tell you for:

Avg MPG
Avg MPH

Hmmm... Full tank would be the capacity of the tank, so if i have a 14 gal tank and i fil it up, would that be a full tank? as oppose to if i have a 17 gal tank and i fill it up??
