Thanks to all who replied. I was asking about mileage, and my '97 in particular - noticed a mileage drop from 30 to 28 or so right around the time I started using A/C. I've only been tracking my mileage for a year and don't really have complete data. But a drop of 2 mpg sounds reasonable, especially with a fair amount of city and stop and go I sometimes do. I noticed today that the A/C on the right side blows colder than the driver's side, so I need to start reading up on the duovalve repair.
My old '85 on the other hand - when the A/C worked - returned a steady 22-23 mpg on 100% biodiesel whether I ran the A/C or not, no matter if I drove mainly city or highway miles.
