I have a 1975 1.8 (L-jet) with all the cat stuff removed.
The car runs strong (I believe), I can reach 110 mph. But when driving slow I get bad mpg (about 20 when other achieve 30) and my exhaust has black dirt. I suspect my car is running too rich. Can this be the cause of bad milage ? When I let the car checked they found 0.8 CO. is this OK ? How can I test, fix, improve, ajust ? |
