I'm seeing 14-16MPG no matter if its highway or city..
I bought a new transmission cable before I bought a new throttle cable.

I tried replacing it, thinking that was my problem with my idle, but my Throttle cable was the issue..
So I never put the new one on.

But would the kickdown cable being out of adjustment make my BLM hit 140 at times?
I don't see how. I know it'll result in poor mpg/hard shifting (which I do feel.)

Well since the kickdown cable is probably one of your issues, best to fix that since it's already known and then move onto the next issue.
