hello,

i have an automatic 1.8l 83 prelude that i use as my daily driver. its carborated and im looking for ways to increase my gas milage.

right now im geting about 16-17 Mpg, i was looking for something more around 25-28 city and 30-32 on the highway. i know otheres with simalar cars and they get about that kind of milage... do you think that is possible with this car? i know the carborators need rebuilt. the car dosent like to idle when its cold. but the car is in decent shape. once it gets warm it runs great.

with a rebuilt carborator should i be able to get that good of gasmilage?

im also looking into options of making this car fuel injected using a Mega Squirt. (some of you may not be famialar with that but i already have one on my bimmer).... does anyone know if there is a fuel injected intake manifold that will fit this head that
is on this motor? it would make things real easy if i could find an intake manifold with injectors, a fuel rail, and throttle body with TPS from a later model prelude or other honda. then i can just throw in a pump, upgrade the fuel line, add some temp sencors, weld in an 02 sencor and make it work.

has anyone else done this carb to fi swap? or would i be better off just rebuilding the carborators?


also, can anyone point me in the direction of some scematics of the carborators on how to rebuild them? iv tryed seraching but theres way to much clutter of honda stuff on the internet to find what im looking for.

thanks to everyone in advance.
