hey champ have your engine coolant temp sensor (ECT) and thermostat checked you will use fuel if either are crook eg. if sensor is crook its telling your computer that ur car is cold therefor dumping more fuel in , same with the thermostat these cars are designed to run @ a temp of about 195deg c also have the IAT (intake air temp) sensor looked @ same as above applies!!!!! good luck######
