Just bought a 944 turbo seems to run rich, getting 15mpg in town if i drive like little old lady and aroung 12 otherwise. manual says 25 around town 35hwy. Any suggestions?....

 

When was the car last serviced? Might try a new airfilter. Check Plugs and Cylinder Compressions. Check ignition system.

Yea that is bad. I can romp on my turbo and still make 17-18. I would change fuel filter, air filter, check your tire pressure, etc. Are there any modifications to the car? Does it have aftermarket chips in the ECU? If it were running a larger turbo, bigger injectors, etc then expect lesser mpg.

 

Good suggestions. I freind of mine runs his on the track and get's better gas mileage. Should be hitting at least 20 on the highway.

 

Should be high 20's on the interstate, and around 18-20 around town depending on how you drive.

 

My buddy must be driving faster than the average bear.

 

Lol, i've averaged 25 doing 90-100 most of the tank At 70, the cars will make 30 all day long.

 

Another thought what grade fuel do you run on. I find the higher grades give me much better gas miileage. Regards Big Bob

 

I think the 944T should be running on high grade

 

Hi grade would certainly be better. Big Bob
