yeah mine gets about 50-100k's less than it should to a tank of gas thanks to a faulty 02 sensor, Toyota part number 89465-19685
All of the engine sensors can affect fuel mileage.
You should check the milage on a used Mercedes Benz. If the milage is really high, there may be some problems with the engine or other parts. If the milage is low then that is a good thing and there shouldn't be any problems with the engine.
If you have a big truck instead of a little car such as my dads Honda crx, the shape of it creates wind resistance so your engine has to work harder to fight the wing. Basically you get less gas milage not that trucks get good gas milage anyways.
not much car gets loud. If its a newer car may bring lights of check engine soon on. And may affect fuel milage.

yes, it creates drag on the motor, very little but does affect milage
96,000 miles
a sensor has usually gone bad or a slight chance has wire has been diconected they are to indicat if somthing is not working right in your engine it will affect fuel milage and prevent a car from passing deq standards where designated
theres no good test for this. but heres a few symtoms of a bad 02 sensor. engine will run real rough, engine pinging, bad fuel milage, and increased vehicle emissions. The defective oxygen sensor also shows up as a check engine light or malfunction indicator lamp illuminating in the vehicle's dash board.
The engine hourmeter on the Silverado/Sierra pickups will give the total run time of the engine including idling time. There is no direct correlation to the milage showing on the odometer. The comparisons you can make is if the hours are extremely high and the milage is low then you can assume that the engine has been idling alot. Alternately, if the hours are low and the milage is high then you can assume that the vehicle has a lot of highway miles on it.
it gives you better gas milage but also increases your hourse power
Yes. A coil pack controls the power going to it's attached spark plug in your engine. If the pack is weak, your engine may not get the spark it needs to ignite the air/fuel mixture. This can cause loss of power, poor fuel milage, or the vehicle not to start at all.
