94 LeBaron MPG

I have a 95 and that seems about right unfortunately...one thing you can do is to give it a nice tune-up. I changed the spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, fuel filter, oil filter, air filter, oil change, coolant and tranny flush and my mpg seemed to go up substantially.

I got 28mpg on a 3,000-mile highway trip last month with the 3.0 in my '92 Spirit, a much heavier car than your '94 LeBaron. However, my '92 had the

4-speed overdrive automatic and your '94 may have the much more robust but less fuel-efficient 3-speed.

Complete tuneup including a careful service job on the crankcase ventillation system.

No, your dirty original air filter was dropping your mileage down to 19. All that "filtercharger" is going to do is allow more crap into your engine -- you don't get 3mpg better with the K&N garbage than you do with a clean proper filter.

Why the weight difference, aren't we talking the same body?

Thanks.

My 1991 LeBaron with 3.0V6 is consistent at 24MPG around town; has been since I bought the car new 14 years ago. I just checked the MPG last fill up, and it was 24.02MPG. I do use Premium unleaded, and change plugs and wires every 50K miles. Now, my CrownVic 4.6l V8 never ever got more than 18MPG around town....... Bill

No reason to use premium fuel in that engine in that car. You're wasting money.
