Try getting gas from a different station. Often times my mpg's change upon where my fuel is coming from. Never a huge difference but a difference just the same.

Sorry to piggy back this thread, but I was wonderin if anyone else has noticed a decrease in gas mileage? I've gone from 15.7-14.0 in a matter of 2-3 weeks. I thought maybe it was due to the tube I added to my intake (PVC), but when talking with a friend and my parents, they all said they've noticed they weren't getting the same mileage outta their cars. None of us have changed our driving styles either. I fill up at the same Exxon station, all the time. I fig'd maybe the big oil companies are watering down the gas? I fig'd b/c it's too early for them to switch the formulas for winter yet. Anyone else see this problem?

Venezuela has been our #3 supplier of foreign oil for over a year now. Nothing new there to blame.

a close relative works at the toledo sunoco refinery, all they produce is low sulfer fuels the epa will require it next year anyway so they just decided that since they were upgrading they would go all the way at once, BTW all fuel inus has to meet certain sulfer content levels and as far as she knows,(she is a chemist for sunoco) all current refineries meet those specs.
