Subject:87 Westy mileage 13 mpg
From:Ken Anderson
Date:Tue, 15 Jan 2002 17:22:09 -0800

I'm getting about 13 mpg combined city and country.  Automatic transmission,
199,000 km (120,000 miles), recently tuned up.

I just noticed tonight that, when the VW is warm, it's idling at about 1600
rpm.

Suggestions for improving my mileage?  One mechanic is suggesting replacing
the oxygen sensor.

Thanks,
-Ken
