Two questions really. im getting about 16 mpg town driving in my m30 e30, does that sound about right?

Also should it make any difference to the engine note while running when i unplug the blue temp sensor? mine seems to make no difference at all

Just seem convinced something not quite right and maybe its over fueling abit.

Sounds heavy to me. The blue temp sensor should read around 3300 ohms cold, dropping to 600 ohms hot.
