hey all...... I just want to ask if I'm getting the right gas mileage for my 98 es 300. I just cleaned the IAC valve, new denzos in (all 6), new oil change, new air filter and I'm hitting about 330 miles to a full tank. I'm using 89 (plus) gas. Does this sound right or I'm losing big mileage?

Most of these miles are on highways. I usually drive 20 miles to work and 20 miles back, usually get stuck in traffic totalling both ways about 30 minute only. I have to fill up exactly 7 days and that is counting the 30min stop and go almost all those 7 days.

Anything wrong or is this normal?

 

oh and another small tiny question..... I have the silverstar bulbs right now and it's decent but I'm thinking about just doing a upgrade to the "ultra" of the silverstar. Is it a big difference compare to the regular silverstar? Let me know so I don't have to "waste" money

thanks guys

 

^I have wasted way to much money on "better" bulbs only to now do a HID retrofit.

 

HID retro time (or put in the regular bulbs...)
Ultra silver stars = $50/pair....
So after they burn out say 3 times..you'll have a pretty decent plug and play.

 

gas mileage would seem to require miles and gallons of gas, but who knows, maybe I'm crazy

 

That sounds about normal if you're filling it up at 1/4 tank left, but if you're on empty or fumes then 330 is on the low side. I usually get somewhere between 350 to 430 miles to the tank depending on when I fill up the car and whether I drive all highway during the week or in traffic, or taking short runs to the store will decrease the AMPG.

 

330 is almost completely empty, right at the E mark already

anyway you can get brand new ultra silverstar h7 on ebay for about 30 bucks including shipping. I just need to know if anyone on here have them and post some shots of the light output

 

Xterminate 330 miles is about what I get from my ES. I average a little better than 20mpg all non-highway. So your mileage seems resonable.

 

Thanks for that.
