there might be your problem. if you are driving it cold all the time it will be rich. |

My 94 EF was running rich and going though around 16l/100k. Changed the oxy sensor with one from auto barn, just the multi fit type (around $70). I now use almost exactly what the books say I should. Around 7.5l highway and 12l city. Engine has done 200,000k.
I'm pretty impressed. cheers Scott
