Re: How many miles per tank?
I get about 330 miles per tank... the best mileage is with 87octane... unless you're boosting or raising compression, stick with 87... more bang for your buck. Especially because you won't burn 91 with a stock KA!

Re: How many miles per tank?
400? damn, you are running lean. Do you have intake+exhaust and stuff. Also do u wait until the needle is like below E and the gas light warning comes up?

Re: How many miles per tank?
I got the injen intake, headers, apexi catback exhaust. Originally from just the intake i was getting 340, then after the headers i got 400, now with the catback i am not sure exactly but i will find out this tank. I wait till the first gas light comes up then i fill it up and calculate the mpg. I was getting 23 mpg, then 28 mpg, the last on was 29.4 mpg

I'm getting ~28.5mpg also. Almost bone stock except for K&N stock replacement. It's a 93 hatch, base model.
I do have a some problems...if I jiggle the tps connector the idle bounces around and it stumbles a bit. I also jiggle it if the idle is too low, seems to be a bad connection. I have a new tps on order, if that doesn't fix it then I'll have to rewire the connector. Oddly, the car seems to pull better from 5500-6500. Seems different from what I've heard, most say it drops off after 5000 or so. Anyway, my 2 cents. Rich D. |
