RE: Terrible mileage

["Lewis, Gary M" <Gary.Lewis@West.Boeing.com>]

Rob and I are in exactly the same shape (he is probably better off; at
least he has a 20v).  My car gets about the same (20mpg).  I just
(yesterday) passed CA emission test (with flying colors; this 'old' car
amazes me).  I haven't replace the OXS.  Any comments appreciated.
TIA
