maybe its this bullshyt gass were buying now with more unneeded chemicals of pointless combustion =oP. injector cleaner every 7k should be done. this new ethanol leaves grey deposits on ur injectors gumming them up easier then before.

Is the increased fuel consumption the only symptom?

how badly would your gas mileage drop with a bad o2 sensor though?

Mine has dropped from about 32mpg to 27mpg. I think it is the o2 sensor but I dont know which one it would be. I think there is two or three. Does anyone know??
