I'm curious if replacing the speed sensor will have an affect on the gas mileage? We just bought the car yesterday, but it's in great shape and the engine seems strong. It's been recently tuned up along with a fuel injector cleaning. Oil has been changed as well as spark plug wires and O2 sensor.
Even with all that, it seems as though gas mileage isn't all that great. It's hard to tell just how far we had driven yesterday, but it was less than 200 miles and the tank was almost full. I just refilled it tonight after not driving it today.
For a 4 cyl car, that seems a bit low. Hence the reason for my question.
Will a speed sensor replacement help?

Speed sensor will have no effect whatsoever on fuel economy. If you have dash lights not working you probably have burned out bulbs.Will replacing the speed sensor help gas mileage?
The speed sensor may improve you mileage due to the computer not being able to use all of its inputs so it reverts to a back up fuel mode. You fix the trouble and the check engine light goes out then it starts running on the program again.Will replacing the speed sensor help gas mileage?
