I just spent $800 on replacing the fuel assembly. I typically get 200 miles per 1/2 tank of gas but over the last several months my economy has dipped to as little as 145 miles per 1/2 tank of gas. The mechanic found a fuel leak, thus the assembly replacement. But the tank is STILL only getting 145 miles per 1/2 tank of gas. The gauge goes all over the place on me. Right now my guess is the mechanic is screwing around with me or it's simply bad gas + the gas station attendant not topping off my tank.
Rotary engine or the piston engine, who cares!

Considering the source of energy of your car comes from what is in the fuel tank. ANYTHING that consumes energy will deplete your source... Be it a low battery, head lights, AC, you name it on a tiny scale even your radio is consuming energy from your source. LED's are also a decent choice from energy perspective. Cost wise, that's another story! Anything that outputs heat, light or any other kind of radiation really, is consuming. There's very good reasons why in very particular types of motorsports the alternator is removed. It eliminates more than just the weight of the component! Ex: Alternator producing some 150A will be pulling some 7-8hp. An AC can also be anywhere between 4~9hp. In either case that's more than the average lawn mower engine produces! These is just for ancillaries, not movement of the vehicle!!

I've got a yaris 1 liter 3 cylinder XS 2016 model with 18500 on the clock why am getting 8.5l/100 km when I'm supposed to be getting 5-6 I drive very conservatively and free (in neutral) where I can What should I do?
Besides normal maintenance, INCLUDING tire pressure and brakes dragging check. Usually these last two are major culprits for "easily fixable" large consumption numbers! One must realize that driving short distances, on cold, rainy or snowy conditions will ALWAYS increase fuel consumption. Sometimes by way more than one might think. If there was no typo on the mileage written. The car is driven very little for a 2016 model. A car with so low km's is still, literally, breaking in! Usually over time it get's way better. Toyota engines are traditionally reliable, but not necessarily the most "accurate" builds out there. They do like their "break in" period. In a general form most normal car engines put out their max. potential around the 50~100k km mark! Dyno numbers confirm it. If possible try it on open road, on a real longer distance trip, preferably with fair weather and compare the numbers. ;-) Always park the car "ready to go", facing the way out. To avoid any extra maneuvers in cold conditions, like U-turn, reverse, etc. If you have to do any of those do it on arrival to the spot. With a warm engine. Very simple trick that can spare a lot more than usually considered! ;-)
false driving with the AC on is more fuel efficient then having ur windows rolled down due to the aerodynamic and wind 💨 resistance and 80% of cars on the road don’t get the correct gas milage ur digital gauge and information on the console is bs ur real gas milage on the highway is ur combined miles not ur highway miles it has listed my 2014 camry se 2.5l has 30k miles on it it’s rated for 25 city 35 highway 25mpg combined I took it from my house to Boston and back Sunday had it on cruise at 65mph no traffic straight shot on i90 I got 415 miles out of it but on paper it’s rated at 595 on a full tank 35 mpg times 17 gallons = 595 but that’s where that combined miles per gallon come into play 25 combined mpg 25 times 17 = 425 there’s ur real gas milage ppl it’s the combined miles not the actual highway miles that ur car is getting so if ur car says 19 city 37 highway and 26 combined ur highway miles per gallon is 26 not 37

Dont even buy a car

Clean maf sensor with maf cleaner once in awhile. It will improve your engine perf and mileage as well, I believe.
These fuel economy tips are fairy easy and simple to do.
The A/C thing is false. You get better gas mileage with A/C than the windows down.
Absolutely right
namith lokesh especially on the highway. windows down creates more drag
Also driving with the window down causes the roof liner glue to come unstuck over time
Iceman78ize yup. my father always yelled at me for keeping my A/C on then his door seals and headliner is wearing

The dealership stripped the screws on my filter compartment. The only way to get the filter changed is through them and their power tools.
Get your throttle body cleaned. It's a key component to tell the cars computer how much fuel your car needs.
