whats the most miles you guys have gotten on a tank of gas? i have a 2.3 with 5 spd. and last week i got 430, my best ever. when i filled up it took about 14.2 gallons and it was extremely low and i filled it till the gas was almost spilling out. so 430 miles on 14.2 gallons is just over 30 mpg average, i thought that was pretty damn good.

 

~28 is the best i've gotten on my 3.0

 

i got 280 on a tank of gas las week...2.2 auto in the city with a heavy foot. mine fills at 13.4 gallons

 

woah! thats not even 21 mpg! must be a damn heavy foot!!

 

my 430 miles is with out my V2 intake... after i install it today and fill up again... im gonna try to beat 430.... i have read reviews that some are getting 3 more miles per gallon... if thats the case i should get about 40 more miles per tank~ 470/ tank that would be sweet who needs a faggy honda insight !?!?

 

your 430 is about the same as my '98 2.3-5sp. this last fillup I checked it at 33.4 mpg which is ok for warmer weather with no AC on.

gas is running $2.03 gal in Keene, NH.

 

yep... $2.10/ gal. here in Buffalo... sucks, but it really doesn't change my driving habbits... im just experimenting

 

i got 430 miles a couple summers ago, it came out to be 31.x mpg. gas light hadn't even gone on yet! i average between 28-30mpg on most of my fillups. i got 2.3 5 spd also...

just think about that number when i actually put engine mods on. PRIUS AINT NOTHING

 

im average about 33 on the highway 2.2 slowmatic

 

over 2.30 here in LA... boooo I get over 400 when im running well... also depends on how long i sit in traffic and how hard I push car. 2.3 99 manual.

 

I get about 240 per fill up

 

im lucky to get 200 per fill up, i got 266 this time though

 

DAMN! when do you guys fill up? at half tank? I'm getting abotu 22 mpg right now with a often heavy foot. It's a 3.0 though, so I'm not too sruprised.

 

I average 20 mpg (mixed highway/city/nitrous). That's 340 per tank.

I can get up to 26 mpg on the highway (440 per tank).

My "best" highway run (fully modded--including spraying about 1/3 bottle) was 27.5 mpg . . . that's 465 per tank): http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...h+carolina+gas

Bone stock, I was getting between 26-28 mpg.

 

I get about 25mpg with my 2.2cl with intake, header and exhaust.

 

I get about 26mpg, mine is a 2.3 manual, bone stock.

 

sigh... i get 19. and i tried not to floor it... prolly the 250~ pounds of stereo equipment.

 

i have an auto 2.2, bone stock. i got 38 mpg once, 'cause i got stuck doing about 40 mph on the ohio turnpike (several accidents and a fuckload of po-lice)

typically i get about 27 or 28 mpg, and that's with typical 80+ mph driving and occaisional red-linings.

 

Thread From the Dead for the Day.

I bring this up because i have been getting horrible mileage ever since i put my car

back on the road (garaged for 2 yrs). Since its been back on the road, i gave her

a new battery, a new alternator, new plugs/wires/cap/rotor. Keep in mind i also

have a huge box in the trunk. Do ya'll think it has to do with my subwoofers/enclosure?

could this have to do with anything electric or is this clearly my intake manifold

or something mechanical going on inside the engine?

 

427 is my highest...worked out to almost exactly 32mpg. and that was with a roof rack and bike, a full trunk, some stuff in back, and a passenger, doing about 75 on the highway. '97 2.2, closing in on 130k miles with a Prokit and Koni yellows.

 

best ever was 39 highway...construction on the ohio turnpike kept me under 40 for nearly 2 hours.

typically get about 25 or so city, 32 highway. nice part is though that it's about 10 miles round trip to work, so i only have to gas up once every 3 weeks. oh, and gas is only like $1.75 in b-more.

 

best i ever got was 400 on a tank, that was all freeway miles though. I usually get around 250ish per
fill up

 

I used to get 350 miles or so until I got new tires....now I only get about 250 with those damn continentals

 

100 mile difference because of some tires? are you serious

 

i dont think your mpg went down because of tires...

 

i'm gettin 18 m.p.g here. @ 254miles on my 98 cl

 

greetings new poster

 

37 mpg driving from Ohio to Maryland. Turbo/Hondata/5th gear kicks ass. Usually for around town im in the 24mpg range which is what I was getting before the turbo, except now I have to use 93+ octane.

 

i get between 20 and 24 w/ my 3.0 auto.

haven't calculated highway mileage yet.

and yes, tires CAN effect your gas mileage if they're soft. if you don't have enough air in them, your car has to work harder to get them to move.... i wouldn't doubt it if the same happened with tires with actual soft rubber.

 

wow... good mpg..

for mine.. 1998 2.3 CL auto

$2.0x per gallon..

full tank(about 14gallon) i go 270~280.. my best was 320.. not anymore though..

why is mine so bad??

i put gas every 3~4 days since my school is like 25 miles away from my house..

 

I can get about 450 on 14 gals. If you use lucas fule system cleaner occasionaly and be sura your plugs are gapped right or just new. I have about two years on my plugs and the gap was streched out. so check it out. also use ngk plugs. shit like split fire messes up your mpg. What type of gass is every body using? I use 91 octaine.

 

Well I've definitely been getting less than 20 mpg lately. Maybe it's because I use the A/C full time now since it's summer here in Phoenix. But I know I was getting about 26-28 mpg with the super bald michelins that were on there before.

 

I got 450 km per tank with my slowmatic 3.0

 

dust, how big is your tank? cuz i have a 97 3.0 premium as well and i can only get about 280 per tank, i think its a 14 gallon

 

i think our 3.0 tank is like 17 cause i remembered filling up at 76 and the meter read just short of 17gals poured

 

you sure you werent pullin a farva to get a free hotdog? cuz i just filled mine and it was like 13.4 gallons and my gas light had just come on before i stopped

 

hmm thats odd i dont even have a gas light....

 

WTF i think i just realized something

i purchased my car salvaged damaged in the back mabe i got a different gas tank? HOLY CRAP no wonder

 

damn im worried now

 

Are you serious? it has to have a gas light, its yellow and it looks like a gas pump, comes on when your low on gas, pretty sure its on the right side. you do have a 3.0 right-what year, mine is a 97
