I have a 1991 Explorer Sport, (4L) that appears to be getting poorer milage in the winter (14mpg) compared to the summer (17mpg).
I have been keeping a nearly continous record of my gas milage since January 2000. I was living in Phoenix AZ in 1991 and my milage stayed around 17mpg witnter or summer. I moved to Ontario Canada in the summer of 2001 and have noticed I now get poorer milage in the winter but about the same as Phoenix in the summer. I did change the thermostat in the end of 2001, because it was not closing and thus taking a long time to heat up, but this did not change my milage.
Is this cold temp/poor milage an indication that I am having a problem with a paticular component such as, a O2 sensor, fuel pressure regulator or MAF sensor?
