2002 Toyota Tacoma Gas Question

Hey guys !

Recently bought a 2002 Toyota Tacoma Pre Runner V6 has 156,000 miles

What kind of gas mileage can I expect? How gallons in the tank? 18?

The previous owner couldn't tell me when the last time it had a tune up. ugh..

Will a tune up help?


I also own a 2006 Toyota 4 runner and it gets around 335 miles to a tank.

It's a 6 cylinder.


Thanks !


Stan

 

What part of the country do you live in?

 

As long as I stay above 10mpg I am quite happy !!

Below 10 MPG I may as well take the Ford F350

 

Orlando, Florida here...

So how many miles you guys get on your tacoma per tank full to empty ?

 

On my D-cab I usually get 275 miles before the light comes on.

Since you have a Prerunner you may get more.

 

Are you bone stock?

 

I have never put 18 gallons in the tank. When the light comes on I’m looking at 16 gallons.

 

Bone stock.

 

Spark plugs, wires do help, I usually add an injector cleaner every oil change and fuel filter every 30K--it should be outside under the driverside area.
