I filled up my tank all the way, drove 248 miles and then filled it up again, and it took 14 gallons and i have a 17 gallon tank, i did the math and it only added up to 17 mpg, then again i filled it up all the way, drove 40 miles filled it up again and it too 2 gallons adding up to 20 mpg, whats up with my car??? its a 95 accord ex 5 speed....

 

Well something is seriously wrong! I get at least 400 miles between fill-ups. Average 32mpg with a BEST of 37.5MPG! How about slow down... and don't 'bog' the engine and it will save you a lot...

 

i drive normal and i still get that bad of gas mileage, i used to get about 400 miles a tank, now its like 300

 

ditto..i have a 94 LX and I get about 290 miles to the tank..what's up with this?

 

i had i/e/h on my 96ex 4cyl auto. i got 220-240 city on a 14gal fillup. i got almost 400 on a 14 gal fillup on highway trips. 17-35mpg. its normal since i have a really heavy foot

 

:werd:

 

agree, check ur tires and O2. i rev up alot and drive with high rpms and i get around 300 miles per tank. i have a 17 gal tank but usually fill it when it has only 3 gallons left.

 

a little off topic but, i just got a high flow cat installed and the guy said i needed a new 02 sensor (not on the header, the one on the cat) and told me it would cost $270 CDN (approx 170 US) but i said no and just used my old one...it was stuck ot the stock cat and he had to heat it up just to remove it...it looks rusty but in my opinion still good...i beleive it was the original one and never changed...my car is a 97 Accord...do i need a new one soon?

 

welp, i have a 94 ex with i/h/e and i get around 300 to the tank, and speed everywhere i go like a little zidek. Sippin on gin and juice, oop my bad. anyways, I changed the 02 sensor, have brand new tires and only get 300 to the tank. y0!

Dat aint jay-dee-em yo!

 

i have to kinda dissagree. tires, yes... 02 sensors, no.... i'd say the second biggest culprit, if not the biggest, is people using the wrong octane fuel in their car because they say that they get the better throttle response placebo.
