Miles per gallon...???
Hi all. I'm a little worried. I am currently getting no more then 150-200 miles from a full tank of 87 ron gas! thats average 12mpg!! I have no real performance parts that should be over fueling....so where is it all going? I am currently set to 10 degrees timing and running 87 ron so any answers???
Take any suggestions or i'm gonna have to let her go!

Wow that sucks dude, i fill 91 oc and normally get about 240 miles per tank. assuming there is a gallon ro so left that means i pull about 17-18 in the city, and i have straights, before i had that done i averaged 260-290 per tank on city driving.
how are your driving habits? slow it down a bit and you might save some, or you might wanna get yer car checked out. that MPG yer getting is pathetic.

Traveled 200 miles and still had a quater of a tank left.
When hurrican Rita forced evacuation for Galvaston, Tx I had to drive the stang to Jewit, Tx wich is 200 plus miles and to my surprise I made it there and still had a quarter of a tank left. Thank god due to 93 octane runs on the average $3.05 a gallon. Your problem could be due to a tune up or maybe fuel filter, fuel reg., air filter or maybe all of the above.
