2.59. wtf. and have you guys noticed that the oil company's earnings reports are at record highs. "blah blah, supply, blah blah, demand, blah blah." bulls**t! motherf**king price gouging is all it is. straight up highway robbery, period, while the government just sits back and lets it happen.

$2.659 at my local 76 on friday. The last that I remember seeing, the friggin' taxes are $.33 per gallon in l.a. county.

dr. buddha

excuse my cursing here, but, **** THE PETROL INDUSTRY, $2.89 isnt a price increase, its a straight jack move. And I'm sure all the execs are driving damn vettes. Rich Bitch Bastards.

103 is @ 5.69 at my 76 gas station.

apollo

76 carries 103 octane gas? didnt know that was available at the pump. im used to having to buy it by the drum for our 388 SBC, or is it 110 octane?

$2.67 here in the town. i might have to retire my z for a while and wake up the x-19 to counter the effect this price hike has had on my wallet.

tekanitrus

thirty five bucks to fill.... when i bought mine last year (novenber) i kept the first fill up slip... 22.37 fill from empty, 89 oct.

i'm going to go cry now.

DynamicJ

we just slipped to 1.99 over night. I think its a war going on between these two gas stations down the street. Everyone else is sitting pretty at 2.09/gal for 89 oct. 91 is 2.14, and 93 is 2.19

DoTheDrew888

Dude you don't need to be complaining. The lowest I've seen around here for 87 octane is $2.23. This is getting crazy!

entropy31

holy crap! i wish it was that cheap here. i still remember the good old days of gas UNDER a dollar. wheres my time machine......

bardabe

pffft 87 octane here is 2.69$

ZExtremeAudio

Hey Bob

91zxtt

$2.76 @ the 76 station.

B, fix your car.....that mileage is awful. My truck gets better mileage than that.

Anybody read the article in Motor Trend this month about gas prices? If not, then you should. Yes, prices are higher than we've seen. Yes, they've gone up a lot recently. Yes, there is price fixing involved. Yes, oil companies are making record profits. Keep in mind,.....it could be worse.

bardabe

yes. do I need pictures to prove it?

b300z

im gonna try to squeeze some new 02 sensors in when i do my exhaust. how long would that take me?

lifegrddude

I never worked on a Z32, but it'll probably be easier from underneath the car if it's like most modern vehicles. I guess us older Z people get lucky by having the O2 out in the open. If your sensor hasn't been replaced before, spray it down with PB blaster and let it soak overnight. You might have to end up using a cheater bar for more leverage to break it free. Took me about 20 minutes to swap it on my 280zx, but for my friend's Sebring, it took maybe 45ish. Anyways, gas here in SD is about 2.83 for 91. Most expensive I've seen around town is 3.14 and I can't believe some people still fill up there when the station across the street is like 15 cents cheaper....

What are you talking about? That's what was posted at the 76 station up here a couple days ago and it's what I paid today. It wasn't me doubting you.

B-I don't think you can reach the O2 sensors from under the car with the tranny in. It's easiest to remove the passenger side O2 sensor after removing the battery. The driver side is easiest with the brake master cylinder out of the way.

b300z

thats what i was afraid of

My Fairlady Z

Yeah, I get horrrrible gas mileage. I'm thinking possibly bad O2 sensor. Sometimes I realize I do accelerate a little hard. I get maybe 210 on a tank..I should be get 300ish

bardabe

pffft I'd get liek 190 on my happy littel tank. my car had poor maintenance I was fixign it little by littel I only had to change the Spark plugs and O2 censors and I was set.
