Possibly the O2 sensor isn't functioning?
So if the engine is cool, say only running 60C on a cool day never getting past say 75C is it going to run super rich? Then say I take it to my mechanic who leans out my mixture, before I changed the thermostat, is it now going to be super lean after I changed the thermostat? All the while my fuel economy still suffering? He told me that running cool on this car will not effect my fuel economy that bad.
