I'm trying to get a little better mileage out of my B230FT (93 944T). Will replacing the sensor work or do I also have to replace Air Mass Sensor. Is replacing this sensor hard? Or what other things can I do to the engine to get a little better MPG these computer controlled car just adjust everything and I don't know what. The useage is currently @ 20.4 MPG at a constant 70 mph Hwy. driving for 3 hrs. or more. This engine should be able to get 25 mpg or more at that speed.
Please advise what I can do.

I understand the lead-foot and acceleration problems, I'm looking for a mechanical solution not the physical one I know.
