Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Malibu / August 2007fuel economy getting worse
A couple of months ago, I was raving about the excellent fuel milage.... 7.4L/100km. I am now getting over 10L/100km. I cannot replace the fuel filter, it is inside the tank. What could I do to increase the fuel economy?

Try using some fuel injector cleaner possibly the type with upper cylinder lubricant. > On Aug 23, 7:42 pm, "Micheal Artindale" <michealartind...@eastlink.ca> > wrote: [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > changed (filters).
