Default How's your fuel consumption?!?

we had a thread like this way back, thought i should start one again on this board.

how far can you go on a full tank?

car: 1996 integra RS
mileage: 490km

just recently did some spring maintenance.
oil change, new plugs, dizzy cap&rotor, fuel pump.

before that, i was averaging 420-450km

i get about 470 - 500 kms per tank... lot of higher speed / highway driving makes for good gas mileage...

i always thought 470 kms / tank i was getting was bad... but guess it isnt so bad after all

You guys are doing pretty well.

I've always been averaging about 350-400 km before the fuel light comes on. So I'd say I can hit 475 max?

I'm still trying to get to the bottom of my tank :cool:

But so far 3/4 tank has gotten me 575k

and still going

i recomend the MSD SCI box it pays for itself in gas and the ripp it give to your engine is great
