I have changed - -plugs -wires -cap + rotor -coil AAP is working - no leaks or holes in the diaphram. Starts good, runs good. Only getting 14mpg. Any ideas?!

If your clutch packs/bands slip or the lockup doesn't function in an auto, your mileage goes south. Re: 1990 22r 14MPG?!

Even with a 22R I think you should be around 25 or so. Do you still have stock tires on it or did you upsize? Re: 1990 22r 14MPG?!

If so maybe your timing is off, or like me the vac lines going to the dist. cap were backwards and my timing was retarding instead of advancing. I switched them and all is right with the world.
