My '86 240 is getting poor gas mileage (~12 mpg) and poor performance -- there are two small holes on the front pipe (from header to CAT) which I think contributes to the poor performance but what about the gas mileage? Recently replaced oxygen sensor (2 days ago) and checked AMM, everything seems to be working fine, but still sucking gas......... smooth idle - anybody have any suggestions?
