Volvo 960 NA right now.
The reason for the test is that I thought it drinks a lot of gas (less than 14 m.p.g).

Three tanks of 92 have given a reading of 13.7, 13.8 and 13.9 m.p.g.

So far, two tanks of 87 have given a reading of 14.1 and 14.9 m.p.g (the last tank though is scewed, because of a 100 mile freeway trip). So I need a couple of more tanks of 87 and than go back to 92 again to double check.

I only have 2 miles to work, so that is one reason for lousy mileage + that the straight six engine IS a thirsty sucker.

All fuel trim values are perfect together with O2 and AMM readings. So it's not a problem with the car or injection system (only my heavy foot).
