1st gen. fuel economy?
I was checking out the link below and read that the '85 model actually gets pretty good milage. Is this acurate for a stock 4Runner?

On the highway I am getting around 21 MPG and 19-20 in the city.
Gas mileage was a bit better for me before all the modifications, but it really hasnt gotten crappy.
I've have a friend with a first gen also and he is getting 22MPG on the highway.

When I had 4.11 gears and 33x12.50's i got 16-17, then i put in 4.88's and I got 18, a week ago I got a k&N intake and flowmaster 40 and now I get about 19.5
Hopefully today I will be putting on a free flow cat and Thorley header. I'll post when I get results. I'm also thinking of the MSD offroad ignition on the future.
How do you tell if your O2 sensor is bad???
