Re: 20mpg average for 1987 Turbo wagon? 700 1987

Well, I have an 89 760T, 104K and I would KILL!!!!!!!! to get 20 MPG. I'm getting 16 MPG in a mixed commute. I'm using 89 octane. I've pressure tested all my hoses between turbo output and throttle body to 20 PSI with no leaks. I've checked all my sensors, catalytic convertor and mixture. Don't seem to have any smoke out the tail pipe, etc. Checked for vacuum leaks, changed injector seals and a few pounds worth of assorted sensors, filters and seals. I AM ready to kill something....the CAR! Thanks for listening, I feel better now. I'll keep trying 8^(
