[Shotimes] Gen II ATX Questions

[Shylo McKinsey]

22 MPG on the freeway? Maybe throw in some Techron to
clean up those injectors. Could be your gas too. I get
about 24 in town with crappy MT gas with 195k on my
'91. Something sounds wrong with your numbers, but
maybe ATX SHO's don't do all that well when it comes
to fuel economy...
