ok so i ran the ecu check a second time, and low and behold the o2 sensor code is gone, but looky looky here comes a code 41 outta NOWHERE.....
bad solenoid valve? wtf is a solenoid valve? would that negatively effect my mpg, cuz if not its staying broken...tired of piling money into fixing problems lol....
then again, thats what happens at 175k.

ive done:
fuel filter
air filter
plugs
wires
o2 sensor
injectors - cleaned
oil change
ditributor cap and rotor
my ecu is pulling a code 34 and 41..... my isc valve and my vics solenoid.....
idle only goes up 300rpm, not gonna do me outta 10mpg. the VICS only kicks in a WOT @5000rpm right? So i dont need that either.....for now cuz i never break 4000rpm.
so WTF is left? Timing? How much work does that entail? (This post has three questions. -thanks)

if the VICS solenoid is broken it could result in the butterfly's being open when they shouldn't be which will kill MPG---Has ClubProtege helped you in someway? show your support by Contributing--- Click Here---

with my turbo lxe i saw 28 city mpg regularly, when i was predominantly highway i would see 30- 32 mpg... i have not done a strictly highway tank or strictly tank... so the hightway could be better and the city could be worse... but that was my average.
in my b8 autotragic protege i get no less than 25 generally 25-28mpgThere are no stupid questions, just stupid people.
