Fuel mileage depends on the driver, the engine size, type fuel and driving conditions. Obviously if you are always in stop and go traffic the mileage will be alot less than on the highway. Higher grade fuels do not always increase fuel mileage. Ethanol reduces fuel milage. Premium fuel sometimes contains ethanol. The average highway mileage is around 18 mpg (at best) on the S-10 Chevy and S-15 GMC 4.3L V6. Heavy accelleration, uphill grades, city traffic all increase fuel consumption. Maintain the vehicle, if it does not run correctly the fuel CONSUMPTION will increase. If the Service Engine Soon light comes on , which indicates a malfunction in the fuel and emission control systems, the fuel consumption will increase. Keep tire inflation at the maximum for the tires but remember, the more you inflate the tires the less footprint on the ground,For safety , do not over-inflate the tires. low tire pressure increases consumption. Under inflation will cause the tire to overheat and could cause tire failure. Alignment, the vehicle's wheel alignment can affect fuel mileage. Anything creating more drag on the vehicle will negatively affect fuel mileage.Gas mileage??
it sucksGas mileage??
It is all according to how someone has kept up the vehicle. Always tuned up properly, oil changes and also, where it is driven (city or highway). Too many factors to really get it down to a certain mileage.
