i dont think they can..im pretty sure u would have some scratches around the door.. if u havent done a tune up on it yet do so.. if u have check ur brakes... i had sticky calipers that were killing my mpg's along with my pads..

Pull the release tab
It won't show any damage.
As for specific ways, you're probably not going to get any answers. It's like making a thread on how to break into our cars.MRT
37.5 MPG, AC on, cruising at 80.
30.0 MPG, AC on, aggressively driving around 90.
27.5 MPG, no AC, cruising at 90 with occasional gridlock. 40 degrees Fahrenheit

Get some awesome wipers! <-- It's a DIY

an yea i know haha, but im just wondering if its possible so i can get that out of the questionComment

You will see a drop in fuel efficiency because of that intake. Definitely fix those codes, as that's probably most of your problem.Originally posted by s_wixom View PostMRT

Those 2 codes are the cause of your poor fuel economy.Originally posted by Junior Smurff

Both codes are very likely telling you that your o2 sensor is bad. The o2 sensor is what the ECU uses to determine how much fuel to send to the engine, so when that is bad, it just dumps a "safe" amont (which is always too much.) THAT is why your fuel economy sucks.
Replace the o2 sensor with Denso or NTK. Those brands ONLY. Do not use a Bosch sensor, as you will be wasting your money. They don't work properly for our cars.
Kinda makes me chuckle... your CEL is on, and your first thought is that someone is siphoning your gas...

haha my first thought was somethin was wrong with the car, cause i had good mileage before, just forgot to calculate it, an when my gas goes from 3/4 to below 1/2 over night, thats why i thought that, but ill be sure to try the o2 sensor on payday, thanks a bunchOriginally posted by deevergote View PostBoth codes are very likely telling you that your o2 sensor is bad.

Hit rockauto.com for the u2 sensor. They sell Denso sensors for like 40 bucks.

haha I have the same problem. At first I though i was going too fast. But now I realized that its the o2 sensor because my (S) blinks all the time. Also whats better denso or NTK o2 sensors?Comment

The S light indicates a transmission error code on 90-91 models. It is not an engine code. Therefore, not the o2 sensor. Pull the code to determine your problem.
NTK and Denso are about equal in terms of quality and function.

My o2 sensor is located at the bottom of the car near my catalyist. Also my gas goes on empty right away. I filled up 10 bucks and I'm near the e. I only drove to school this morning. Il will try to find a thread about getting s codes.Comment

The thread marked "read this first" at the top of this section would be a good place to start.
And yes, all f22a4 and f22a6 engines have the o2 sensor located there.
Do you really have a Canadian-model CB7, or are you just being clever in your sig?
