DSM gets 9mpg...

Course it snowed, and it couldn't possably be cause of the way it was driven....

Maybe your fuel pressure regulator is being overrun? I know that mine over runs because I can see it in the knock, when the engine is cold. If I drive around like that the car runs like crap, and I could waste 1/4 of a tank just going 20 miles.

-Haha, no, the only thing wrong with it was the driver had excessive use of the gas pedal, the car will get 22mpg if im nice to it.... doesn't matter anywase, in less than 100 miles of it being together its now broken AGAIN!!!!

[awd-drifter]

do you guys know how many miles the average dsm gets in a full tank hopefully without heavy throttle?

[JET]

Usually 23-25 on the highway is average for an AWD. Highest I have seen was Nash with 32 mpg on the way to the SO a few years ago.

[AJ]

I thought Nash averaged more than 32. I thought during 1 tank he was hitting 39 as an average. I could be wrong though.

my dsm got around that when I had the stock ECU

with a eprom and a keydriver stage 3

its in the low 20's and on the highway it is in the mid 30's.

Sorry man, you aren't going to see a 12 mpg difference in gas mileage. The mid 30's must have been on a short fill or your tires are a different size or something.

[Pimpin Dsmstyle]

I check my mpg every single time I fill up and my old FWD would get over 30 anytime it was hwy driven and it would get low 20's in the city. It was in the neighborhood of 10 mpg difference.

The awd got 19 mpg religiously in the city. 23-24 on the hwy.

[Kracka]

My FWD averaged 24 city/hwy and 31 hwy.
