400+miles a tank

[95civicvx]

I get 36-40 mpg depending on how much highway and city driving i do. 34 mpg with the A/c on. With only a 10 gallon tank. i can't go as far as some of you guys can. I'm sure if i went all highway i could get over 40 mpg.

^^^ I dunno man, but I def. get 420+ on mine. I dont have much done to the motor just i/h and the motor is in good shape w/ 101000 on it. You have anything major done to yours?

with nitrous its hard not to give a little throttle on the onramps to the intertstates.

 

[speedy_beedee]

I have gotten 506miles on a tank getting about 45 mpg. That was before the a/c kit and I dont have ps.

 

[FLAteam]

get around 300 miles on 10 gallons, 30mpg. i got automatic and i blow AC all the friggin time.

I drove like a grandpa right after I did a tune up on my d16y8. I got a little over 300 with about 45 minutes on the AC. This is pretty good right?

i dont know what it is but i get about 21 mpg i changed the fuel filter and all i done to the motor is i/h/e/ what else can i do to at least get the average?

change your 02 sensor out

 

[honda_power]

there is 2 o2 sensors on my headers wich one do i change or do i change both and about how much do they cost.?

I usually get 400+ out of a full tank...and that is shifting around 2500-3000 and not going any faster than 70-75 on the highway..and keeping it in 5th as much as possible when driving around town.

 

[honda_power]

and yes i only do city driving. stop and go 100% i rarely get on the freeway .

geez... all these high numbers. the most i've gotten is 340 i think. i get around 290-310 consistently. maybe having an auto has to do with it?

Yeah, auto uses more gas than manual cars.

Just pumped again earlier, 374 miles from 9.23 gallons which equates to about 40.5mpg. Lots of highway mileage. There's about another 2 gallon I could've driven... perhaps another 60-80 miles?

Sometimes driving technique helps in saving gas. Steady acceleration, driving in highest gear possible, slowing down but not stopping completely, etc. For your tune ups, regular oil change, check ignition system; spark plugs/wires, distributor cap and rotor and have a clean air filter. And then pump your tires up a little more than the recommended pressures, I have mine at 40lbs. front, 38lbs. rear.

I also pump from Chevron whenever possible. That extra $2-3 you paid is well worth it for the engine. My last smog check had 0% CO output. It also might just be a mental thing, but the butt dyno says gas at the more expensive gas stations (Chevron, Shell, 76) makes the car run more powerful.

Im not sure how many miles Im getting in my HX.. but I know its pretty decent..

With my B16 and driving very efficiently, I managed to only get close to 300. This was hard to do, and I never done it again.

i get 330mp tank on city streets. i dont push my car hard if at all.

 

[lawrenceashley]

400+ on a tank amazes me. I only get around 320 when I had my civic dx and 300 on my integra.

 

[k624ash]

dont civics and integra have different size tanks? its much more acurate to go by mpg anyways

if you really concerned about mpt you can have a custom tank made so that it is huge

when i got my teg it was getting 18-19 mpg, now i have it up to 25-30mpg

 

[EK|B]

Good info! I need to put more air in.

 

[SiRcivic27]

28MPG with a fair amount of boosing going on! I was excited to see that when I thought about how much I got on my car, it seems to be pretty consistent because I cant keep my foot out of boost.

 

[squidmaster]

i do pretty much ALL city driving and I get like 250ish with my d16
