That's terrible mileage. You should do a tune up.

That doesn't sound too great... Tune up in the near future, depends how you were driving too.. maybe...

Also, you can't be sure that your needle is correct. Go fill it up and figure out your mileage.

My 3.1 Auto cavalier gets 480km for a 57 liter tank.

Time for a tune-up man, or quit racing civics.

my 91 3.1L standard cavalier gets 425km for about 50L. either a tune up or stop bagging on your car everywhere.

ps i need a tune up also
