for the 3.4L guys, I was getting 12 mpg city, and 17 mpg on the higway, I switched the 02s, and no I am back to about 20 in city 25ish on highway.
I have a little bit of a heavy foot though.
On a 96, its very possible its your o2 sensors, I wodl swap them, might evne notice a slight improvement in power.
