Hey Evom,
I just recently tuned my car at Evodynamics. Car came out running flawless. Until 200 miles after I drove her away.

It was tuned on E85, and 93oct.

It boggs a little under WOT. Not so much on pump gas, but a lot worst on e85.
I have also calmed down and DD the car to work. Well, I average about 200-220 miles per gallon. 95% Highway.

Kevin the tuner stated my plugs may need to be re-gapped. Does this sound correct?
And what can explain the horrible gas mileage?

Thanks guys

Could be a boost leak issue or a fried out O2 sensor... Are you throwing any codes?

Sounds like kevin is right. Tighten your plugs a bit. As for the gas mileage on e85 adding timing on the cruise load will help a lot. I avg around 260miles a tank. Gotten as high as 300 on a long drive.

I would love to give it a shot. Won't I need a "gap tool"?

Ya double check your gap on the plugs , did u replace them before your tune?

You can get them at walmart or autozone for couple bucks(?).

If your on a stock fuel pump that's ur problem. If your on 255 fuel pump it might be on its way out

I will bring this into consideration after doing the plugs. It's a 255 Walbro, but it was used before. Thanks for the tip

They are cheap just put a new one in it! I get around 180 miles till its at an 1/8th of a tank thats quite a bit of boosting and pretty normal for e85 I would say? Used to get 260-280 miles per tank on stock injectors and 93. Also when it boggs what is ur boost and A/f ratio doing? Is it a bogg or fuel cut?

Just wait til you run E85 full time. You'll get 140 to the tank

My bet is a boost leak.
