Default motor is killing all of my gas

hi i got a problem with one of my integras, the one that has the problem is automatic and when i drive a full tank it does about 450km.
i dun think it is right cause it kills so much gas, no a/c or nothing on.
first i thought maybe it is burning too much gas.
can someone help me out.
i dont even punch the car.

Ryan

450km sounds about right for a full tank..how many km was it doing before?

my gas ranges so much in my car, sometimes i will get like 350km on a tank, a few weeks ago coming home from the cottage with 3 people in the car with the car completly loaded with stuff towing a seadoo in 4th gear at 4200 rpm for 300km, i got 500 outta that tank of gas and i still had 10 L left when i filled it up...crazy

I've been keeping track of my mileage for the past few years. I get about 13-14km/L for mostly highways and around 10-11km/L for mostly city driving. So 450km on a tank is normal.
