The car is capeable, as I got 33 mpg once It would be much easier on your engine if you just drive it slowly for a few blocks when cold rather than let it idle for a long time. You want it to come to temp as quickly and evenly as possible. Idle will not let that happen. Also, 16-18 mpg sounds way low no matter what your driving conditions. Better find out why you're running rich. -Mark Fuhriman ------------------------------------------------------------------- Too much? Digest! mailto:type3-d-request@vwtype3.org Subj=subscribe
