Sign up here!   Email This Post Auto Repair Home>> Automotive Repair>> Engine Troubleshooting InVision New User Sep 14, 2007, 3:33 PM Post #1 of 4 (1213 views) 1991 Dakota 7 miles to the Gallon? Help!!!! Sign In I've changed the coolant sensor, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotar, spark plug wires, o2 sensor, pvc valve, air filter and oil breather. It gets about 14 miles per gallon for one tank then it goes down hill really quick to about 7-10 miles per gallon. Before I changed all those things if I put my hand by the tail pipe, I got a handful of soot. I don't see hardly any soot out of the tail pipe now, but I see it on the spark plugs. What else could I be missing? ps. I don't know if this would cause any problems, but my ignition switch is messed up and doesn't crank the engine. I put the key in and turn it to the on position, then I hot wire the starter. Could that be making the choke stay engaged? mopar_man1991 User Sep 14, 2007, 3:40 PM Post #2 of 4 (1211 views) Re: 1991 Dakota 7 miles to the Gallon? Help!!!!

Sign In Yes, it's getting too much gas. But what is causing it to do this? Is there something that I am missing?????

It would be sensing engine temp and adjusting the fuel delivered for a cold engine. Bet that info doesn't get to the computer and it thinks it's cold all the time, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
