My mileage low as well

My 85 Fed TD gets consistantly 21 MPG. Mostly city. Say 10% freeway. Never better. No smoke. Love the torquey low end in town. I NEVER
have tried to better the MPG. I drive for fun. Doing that in my Sunday car
results in about 10 MPG, so I'm happy with 21 MPG in the TD. Looks
as though someone tweaked the ALDA as the plastic cover is scraped
over the screw. I personally don't sweat a couple miles per gallon if the car feels fine.
