Seattle area mechanic and 80Q mileage...
Hi all.
I recently purchased an '88 80Q 5sp and am in need of
recommendations on where to get it serviced. I looked in the FAQ, but
there were very few Seattle area wrenches listed. I live in N. Seattle
(near the UW), so anything local would be helpful.
On another note, my mileage has recently dropped (according to the
trip computer AND my own calculations) to around 15.5 MPG (!). Now, I
don't exactly baby the thing, but I'm not charging up Pikes Peak either.
When I bought it 10 months ago, I was getting around 20 MPG in the city.
It's been about 15,000 miles since the last tuneup, so I imagine this has
something to do with it. My question is this: what kind of mileage are
other people with this car and configuration getting?
Thanks in advance,
