Why do I have more power when on empty in my Subaru Impreza?


Recommended Posts

Gasoline is about 6 lbs per gallon.

 

It can be just your imagination. Can be the fact your car is thirsty and in a rush to get to its "water fountain" . Don't you always run faster after a workout when you know the bevergae of your choice is there waitng for you, tempting and taunting you?

 

 

:grin:

 

Or it can be that your running rich and you dont know it (tired fuel pressure regulator ? ).

What size tires do you run? My '94 EJ18 sedan ran fastest on 14" rims; like a stone on 16" rims.

 

I never noticed a difference with different amounts of gas in the tank. Maybe the slight forward shift of weight to the front makes a difference.

I have 15" rims. Thats interesting to know. cheers.

 

Is there anything that I can remove to make it lighter. Things that are important?
