so i just did my first full fill up in my new e21. calculated my trip milage (always reset on a new tank) with how much it took, and i'm getting about 25MPG, not terrible to todays standards but i know my putty little 4cyl is capable of much better mileage.
so i'm making a plan of attack to get better mileage.
can't really think of anything else besides reducing weight, but there's not much to take off of the e21 chassis.
how do you guys increase your mileage in terms of driving habits and maintenance/modifications?
so i'm making a plan of attack to get better mileage.
- shift at lower rpms, don't romp the gas (sorta hard to do with so little power lol.)
- definitely make sure my tires are around 35psi.
- check oil periodically (already do that...)
- fix diff issues.
