Replaced plugs wires, fuel filter, air filter, O2 sensor, Cleaned the Idle valve, clean the air bowl/air box , tuned it back to the stock rpm spec 850-900 Rpms, I dont beat it and I am still getting 10-11 mpg out of an 83 AUDI, 2.2 5 speed, 248k miles, CIS-e injected. Runs well, just chewing up GAS!! HELP.

set timing? did you touch the distributor? when you played to get eth idel down via the idle screw or the 3mm hex bolt in the air box, you need to reset both at a time, cant do just one.
