when I used the ***** gas and drove it hard I would get about 340K(highway) per tank.
I use the best gas, drive it moderately and I now get about 440K(highway)
not for long though here comes the new engine and tranny.

My old 90 CRX Si.
Speaking of kilometers per tank O' Gas before I owned the 97 Civic I had a 90 CRX Si. I got about 650K per tank on that bad boy.........
It was such a good car, pity the front end was going along with the body and the sunroof fell off..... ohh and it had 400,000 plus on it.......but hey it was awesome on gas

better mileage
yeah, what can you do to improve your gas mileage? I recently switched my engine oil and transmission oil to synthetic and i have noticed my milage went from 460km per tank to 400 km per tank.
- does synthetic decrease mileage?
- does premium gas decrease mileage?
would a full tune up fix any problems thats occuring with shitty mileage.

a usual fill up for my 94si is about 31 litres. someone posted it should be 40 liters. How many litres is a full tank for a 94 si?

thats fucked, i guess im filling up too early - my needle will be on the line and when i fill up its usuall 32 or so liters.
I guess i have more gas than the needle reads, just never wanted to risk seeing how close i can take it.
