Fuel line...

[Derek Pulvino]

Mike,

I suspect the following is part typo:

"I also replaced the FPR while there as my car has been going through a bit 
of oil as well as 10-15% fuel usage variations on identical trips and I 
figured the FPR could be the culprit."

I understand how the FPR could be part of mileage variations, but not so 
much be related to oil usage.  Did that replacement help in alieviating your 
problems.
