Been in my 09 esky for about 4 weeks now and the mpg are pretty decent in my book. Carrying 12-13 city and 17-18 hwy and my hwy miles are all at a good clip almost always. This is unmolested / no mods.

Sounds about right!

Awesome flikr pics bTW

Lose the super chips! The JET MAF is junk. I second that you are probably running way to rich. Do you have stock exhaust ? I lived in NY for a while what the way Y'all norm drive is like crazys down south! And I am an ******* driver and Y'all scare me.

Hello everyone. I have been watching the forum for several months now and wondering......
Am I getting proper mpg or what.


I have a 08 denali with a superchip tune a k&n intake and a jet maf sensor. No other performance options.

City I can't get more than 8 mpg highway 12mpg.

I drive her relatively hard. I am not racing from light to light.

Is this normal? What are you getting? What should I do differently?

i feel your pain brother, also with a 6.2 denali AWD, living in NYC doesnt help the fact, i personally have been getting about 10-12mpg myself, in the city, every once in a while i need to get on the highway and take that long drive down to AC to get the avg MPG read out up to comfort my mind subliminally lol

Nevermind, I see you said you took it off.

MAF and throttle body clean? That higher compression engine will see better results with 91+. Could also be bad fuel.
