Recently I began to monitor the gas mileage of my 90 Chevy Corsica,V6/3.1L 3speed automatic transmision. Curb weight about 2885 lb3 ?/ d6 Y8 o! s2 K1 M# g
The gas mileage measure method I got from a local friend is that fullfill the gas tank each time, put down the mileage and gas volume(litre) filled in, then 8 J6 F$ K4 h" _The gas mileage = (next time mileage - previous time mileage) /(next time filled gas volume) " e7 J6 c q+ }% ~# `8 ~& T
After convent to MPG(mile per gallon), the result I got is 26 MPG $ X+ r5 c g3 A- I/ R0 e ! p* t" ^7 ~; w; L B/ J( K# n- mOfficial gas mileage is MPG (City/Hwy) 4 cyl 24/33 v6 21/29! T0 ]( L: [, Y. a8 O- M5 `
