'95 Accent bad gas mileage
 

My gf just got a '95 Accent, it has been maintained fairly well and only has 45K mi. on it. She has been getting sub-par gas mileage (about 18-20mpg) ever since she got it. I replaced the air filter for her and the oil is fairly fresh, what else could it be? I drive a turbo GTI and I know a common problem with them and gas mileage is the MAF or mass air sensor, could this be her issue as well? Any insight is appreciated. TIA

RE: '95 Accent bad gas mileage
 

did you find out why it was using so much gas?
I think our accent (same model you have) is using to much too,but if I did the miles/km & gallon/liter convertion right our car does 33miles/gallon. But thats highway driving in speeds between 60-80mph.
Im trying to find the fuelfilter now since the airfilter & sparkplugsare new and the oil with filter is changed every winter.

You should change the plugs/wires since it is a 95 and they're probally oem.
Also, get a bottle of fuel system cleaner and run it through next time she fills up.
Replace the pcv valve ($5 part) and that will also help alot.
