Poor Mileage and Coolant Question
Hi,
How frequently should I have to add coolant? My warning goes on about once a year, is that normal? Also, my driving is limited to the city. Right now I'm getting less than 14 MPG, that's pretty sad. Does that sound normal?
Thanks!

The poor gas mileage could be due to a bad MAF. Try unplugging it and see if anything changes. If not, your MAF is bad or needs to be cleaned.
