Subject: 88 5ksq 5-speed standard fuel consumption?
Hi,
What should be the fuel consumption for an 1988 5ksq with a standard 
5-speed transmission. I may get 22-24 MPG on a highway and 18 MPG in a 
city (super (93) gasoline). Is such a high fuel consumption normal for 
this car?
Thanks

My '87 5kcstq with 185k miles gets 24-26 mpg in a mix of town and country
local roads driving and  30 when I can get onto an expressway and drive a
steady 75-80 mph.  Almost the same mileages I get with the two '86 4kcsq's
