[QUOTE="_JOE_, post: 1368480, member: 77507"] MikeT is right, you need to have a build-up of carbon for the cleaner to make a big difference. I haven't noticed it yet here, but we typically get winter blend fuels up here sometime in october that hinder mpg. MikeT, it may be worth it for you to have the dealer hook the cars up to a scan tool and watch the switching rates of the O2 sensors and verify all the others sensors are functioning properly. My 95k mile 3 liter toyota was getting 15mpg when we got it(had about 85k). After new plugs, mass airflow sensor cleaning, transmission service, alignment, fuel system cleaning and a switch the premium fuel I usually see 19. Have you had them aligned? New tires? Some cars can benefit from an ECU reset from time to time. Kind of like your PC likes to be shut down sometimes. All you need to do is unhook the negative battery cable and wait about 5 minutes. Hook it up and take it out for an easy drive so it can set up the most fuel efficient parameters for the ECU. I wouldn't think BOTH cars would be affected at the same time unless it was some sort of fuel issue though........have you tried a different brand of fuel? What rating do you use? [/QUOTE]
