hey there


  

bsamoe -> hey there (10/10/2004 5:52:52 PM)

I just bought a beater car for my commute of about 65 miles /way. The car is an '88 Hyundai Excel w/standard tranny.  I am getting lousy gas mileage and am having trouble finding parts for this vehicle.  Does anyone have any suggestions for my problems.  I have already tried the spark plugs and will be flushing the carb out this week to hopefully increase the fuel mileage ratio.  Thanks for any info in advance.

man[:(] that sucks.
my hatchback gets 27-30 mpg even after i redneckofitted more air induction.
timing problem? mmm that'd make a power problem probably (in mine it does)
but you'd notice... you've only got 85 horsees nd with a four or five speed any small change would be noticeable on a highway (mine gets to 95 after a looong time, but 80's where it's at[4 speed])
Fuel filter? cheap 'n' ez![;)]
what color were the plugs? i think i don't get enough gas 'cause mine r whitish.
they do have a computer but i haven't figured that part out yet.
i deliver in mine so i wrench on it often.

(seriously, 85 hp?! i have trouble getting up to speed!)
