i have a 91 isuzu stlus that i just traded my dirt bike for..
first off it gets only 20 miles to the gallon.... i have replaced the spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, and oil filter... it still gets terrible gas mileage. what should i do about that?
secondly it idles rough and i have taken it to a mechanic and he did a diagnostic and he said it passed with flying colors. it has a new muffler, water pump and radiator.
what about all that?
and lastly, when i am driving sometimes the acceleration dies, it just looses speed and then picks back up, and this happens randomly a have not been able to accociate a consistent pattern, could this be why the car is getting such bad gas mileage? its inly a 1.6 i would assume that it should get around 30+ mpg..
thanks
