Post by Steve Photojournalist »

Hi guys, I just got myself a cool little car, I am a photojournalist as you may have guessed and general photographer and find this nippie car perfect for my line of work, it not only sells me, its quick so I get to jobs faster.<BR>I was reading someone wrote they are only getting 20mpg though I seem to be getting around 30mpg so I must be lucky hey.<BR>I think its a good little conact club and will have its uses in time.... I will post a pic when I get round to scanning one... PS my clocks are all kph. Steve.<P>------------------<BR>Steve Photojournalist

I get 30mpg in the city as well. Those who get less are in dire need of a tuneup, likely Oxygen sensors and a clogged cat.<P>Glad to have you aboard!<P>------------------<BR><B><I>David Coleman</B></I><BR><A HREF="http://www.PinkMX-3.com" TARGET=_blank>1993 Mazda MX-3 GS Special Edition</A><BR><B><A HREF="http://www.highlandsun.com/hyc/sae920677/" TARGET=_blank><I>V6 engine info</I></A> | <A HREF="http://www.bradbury.cwc.net/probemx/index.htm" TARGET=_blank>KL FAQ</A> | <I><A HREF="http://www.brownsword.ca/Probe.html" TARGET=_blank>ECU reprogramming</A></I> | <A HREF="http://members.home.net/tekguy/" TARGET=_blank>K series Image cache</A> | <I><A HREF="http://archive.probetalk.com/cgi-bin/se ... tion=intro" TARGET=_blank>Probetalk Archive Search</A></I></B><BR><B>Support OPEC: Buy an SUV</B>

Thanks for the reply and welcome David, I think maybe staying in first gear to long when pulling off simply because everyone wants to race with you when they pull up next to you in your MX3 and that does nothing to help fuel economy, I try not to get involved and only boot it when I need a quick start...<P> Steve.<P>------------------<BR>Steve Photojournalist
