You know what? I have a 99 2.3 CL and its giving me 15-17 mpg!

No codes pull up or any check engine light coming on.

Wonder what it could be. Lot of ppl say 02 Sensor. But which one? hmm...

Easy fix! o2 sensor...

I just changed both of of the sensors last week (Recommend), The sensor before the cat and the one on the cat. I lifted the car (Acura 97 2.2) on ramps and slid under car with a wrench, you may need a little WD-40 before removing the sensor. the sensors ran for about $75 total each. I heard that was a really good deal. Oh! I disconnected the battery just in case to reset the engine light.

Forgive me for being so naive bro.... but did you change your 02 senors because your engine light came on and also you was suffering from terrible gas mileage?
