MPG Question?
How many MPG should a 1985 190e 2.3 get?
Also, I recently added STP Fuel Injector cleaner, with the "Jet Fuel" additive and it really did help imprive performance. I guess it does help clean on the injectors.

2003 C230K Sport Coupe, 1986 190E 2.3
The 2.3 8 Valve from that time frame gets about 18-20 City and 22-24 highway. Not very good by todays standards but darn good for the mid 80's. Also has 120Hp and about 136ft/lbs of tourque and a 8:1 compression ratio. So it could be easily turboed and some are working on EFI conversion which of course would improve fuel economy as well as engine smoothness and start-up.

I thought that was only the 1984 model?

Mileage would have probably been better in cooler weather without the a/c on.
