How does my cooling system function? While running at the cooler temperatures my gas mileage was 17.3 mpg. When the car's temperature ran high (185 or above) the gas milage dropped by 2mpg.
Physics backs this up, Boyles law states that the higher temperature reduces the amount of fuel that will enter the engine.
The big problem is that the cooling system is marginal at keeping the temperature at 160. I am always looking for cooling ideas.
