hello guys
i have a very serious problem and i cant seem to solve it and its getting worse as time goes on
when i first bought the car (78,000 odo) my economy was good. 4 months down the road my mileale started go bad a little bit but not noticbly bad. in other words its was something i could work with cause i got the car back after it was stolen and all of the stuff i had was stolen and was return to stock
but with time it has gotten worse. (97700 odo)
my current mods is
apexi down pipe
thermal 3"exhaust cat-back (no converter)
hallman pro boost controller
extreme psi intake and filter
1g modded bov
accel wires
ngk 7 series
walbro 190lph
angry T25
now my fuel economy is horrbliy bad
when i did the math on it it looks like im averaging about 12mpg if not less
i do gas every other day
yesterday i put 10 dollars in the tank when it was empty which after i put 10 dollars in it brought me up a quarter tank!!!!!!!
and i had to put 5 dollars in today!!!!! where is the gas going?????
there is no puddle under my car at all after sitting in my drive way telling me theres a leak or anything
and get this when my gas goes close to being empyty (when gas light flashes) a heavy gas fume smell enters the cabin of the car and i have to open all windows in 20 degree chicago weather to vent out the fumes because it is so thick and get me migraines from it
thats telling me i got a leak somewhee but i cant seem to buy it
i took my car to jiffy lube to inspect the undercarrige for leaks they said that all lines were dry...
could it be the charcoal canister, fpr, injectors, fuel rail, filter, lines, pump??????
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME OUT HERE???
my moms ford expolrer saves more gas then i do and its a SUV!!!
