Hi All, I've had my 81' westy for a few months now, and through the help of the members have fixed a few problems. (thanks to all). My next question is about miles per gallon. I have been reading the list daily and alot of members are averaging 20+ miles per gallon, while my 81' air cooled, fuel injected 2.0L is averaging around town only 15 to 16 MPG. I have not done any extensive highway miles yet until I work out all the little bugs, and feel confident with the mechanics, but is this average for around town driving? The engine seems fine, idles all right. I checked the plugs and there color was light tan to gray, no problem there. Timing all right also. Any other suggestions or is this normal? Thanks Mark Kazman
