My mileage is also not brilliant
Assuming we are talking US gallons and not those big buggers over the pond, I'm getting 22MPG or so on extended long drives with NO city driving and taking it easy on the pedal. Torque converter is definitely locking up.
The strange thing is it seems to use the same amount wheather I'm going easy or caning it at some obscene speed to (easily) keep up with the weiner in his FXGT corolla on those big winders.
I too have just cleaned my throttle body which was full of hard deposits and a lot of oil, sucked in from some vacume line somewhere.
My O2 sensors shouldn't be too bad as the car has only done 92K.
I've just taking out the oil soaked foam air filter that was in my car - interesting to see what happens with a dry MAF. Seem to have a bit more torque down low too.
