Hey all..
Just swapped out my near 400,000km ecotec for a 124,000km one , swapped over a few sensors , but have found after a good highway run im losing about 150km per tank. I maxxed out at 721km from the old motor , now im lucky to get 600km on the exact same drive.. It does feel like it wants to stall out sometimes when taking off or the AC compressor kicks in. Still drives like normal , but does seem a little under powered compared to the old engine ( replaced as it developed a rattle somewhere - havent pulled it down yet ).
Any thoughts as to why my economy went to crap?
