Only getting 22-23 MPG - Toyota Yaris Forums

For just argument sake, I think you should get maybe a fuel injector cleaner like " sea foam" I heard is really good. And filter it through an entire tank- reset the odometer and see where you are. You should be doing better numbers than that.

Seafoam is bloody awesome.

I'm going to be taking about a 100 mile all highway trip this upcoming saturday so I will record the mileage then and post that afterwards.

I just had a fuel injector treatment done by toyota that cost me $150 so is seafoam gonna make a difference at this point?

As for what I used to drive, it was a Ford F-150 Supercrew...MPG was the reason I got the smaller car. But come to think of it, I was tripping on the gas mileage with that too as I was only getting about 9-10 MPG. That was BRUTAL at $70-75 a fillup.

Don't forget to fill up before and after to get the most accurate calculation!

No, because most likely the dealership charged you $150 to run an $8 can of SeaFoam through your car!

If you were driving the same route in that, I am actually surprised you did that well with a F-150 Supercrew! Honestly, for such a short distance and considering you live somewhere where the weather is beautiful most of the year, have you ever considered either a bicycle or public transportation?
