I have a 2005 sunfire, automatic. It says i should be getting around 25 mpg city and 35 highway.
I filled my tank up to full and have used 3/4 of the tank. (its a 14 gallon tank) Im only at 190 miles driven. That comes out to be roughly 18 mpg so far.
I dont floor the pedal.
I dont use AC.
I use defrost only in morning for 10 minutes.
I should be getting atleast 300 mpg shouldnt i?

could you put the turbo where a supercharger would normally go instead of doing it through the exhaust and everything.

My car won't start at all. Have tried all obvious areas - plugs etc but still nothing. I did top the oil up the other day there and although there hasn't been any problems since then, could it be the wrong oil type. If so is this easily fixed.

I am thinking of buying a car with a dent and some resulting rust from the damage on the quarter panel. It is located on the passengers side, at the bottom edge of the quarter panel near the seal of the door. The door works fine, I am just worried what the total cost of repair will not be worth it. I don't know anything about body work :(

I am looking at buying a Massey Ferguson 35 tractor, everything appears to be ok, but when i checked the dipstick it was grey rather than black, what does this mean? is it water or just in need of a change.

I have an old car that I haven't been driving for 4 months. Recently it has not been starting. It boosts no problem but then when I go to start it an hour later it won't start again. I haven't been driving it after the boost because there are no plates on it. The battery and alternator are only a year old. Does it just need to go for a good drive or is there something further wrong with it? It was fine sitting with the occasional start up until a month ago.

I have a 1998 Honda Civic EX and im changing my oil, but I cant get the bolt off the oil pan and i forget which way to turn it. I just want to make sure im not tightening it rather than loosening it to get it off. I've changed the oil myself several times before, but the last time i took it somewhere to have done cause i had a free oil change and they put the bolt back on too tight. Now i cant get it off.

ok my a/c works great for a limited time...then it just stops blowing cold air, it'll blow air, but its not cold. turn it off for a min, and it blows cold again....i've tried everything i could think of and nothing has fixed it. i live in FL and this weather is too hot to go without it so any help would be swell.

I bought a used car a few years back It had a nice looking body but the paint was a little faded so I decided put a wax job on it.
A old mechanic named " Bud who used to work on cars when he was younger, told me not to do it.
He said wax would make the car rust. I laughed at him and he got serious and said "go on wax it fool".
I did and it looked great, for about a year. Thats when I notices rust stains around the moldings of the car.
I kept the car for three more years. By then It had obvious cancer spots all around it.
I thought wax was suppose to protect the car from rust? I know the car did not have rust on it before because, I bought it from a family member who bought it new.
How can wax make a car rust?

I have a 302 roller lifter block w/ an aftermarket FR E303 cam. Do I use the cam firing order(13726548) or a 302 order? Also, Does it matter where number 1 is on the rotor?Can I just pick a post and use it as number 1? I have a Mallory SS comp distributor and it does not have number 1 marked. I am really confused, but I can't afford a real mechanic...
