what like 3-4 miles?? cos that would be why you're getting crap mpg - you're basically driving the car on the choke (so to speak) car hardly warms up, and burns more fuel as a result

I saw an increase in my mpg this morning due to the warmer weather  :smiley:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
