not a thing. I could run some injector cleaner through it but I don't really think thats going to fix it.

I will do a compression test after a drive around the block to warm it up and post up the numbers. Maybe I'm getting MAD blowby or something. The power feels fine though so I dunno. I might also pull the intake pipes and check them out. Maybe they are very dirty. Another thing I was thinking was maybe I have an injector thats gone to hell or something. Its all very annoying and weird.

Ok I have never actually calculated out how many mpg my car gets(which I will do sometime soon), but I know in a tank of gas integra's are usually supposed to get about 320 or so miles out of a tank correct? Well I fill my tank up all the way and run it untill the light has been on for just a little while and the most I have ever gotten out of a tank was 260-270 miles. This can't be right? I need to do the 60k tune-up though, get my valves adjusted and all that. Will this help me get more miles out of my tank?? Oh and this information is including me hitting vtec and all city driving, not highway.

Stop pushing the car so hard on the highway and your mpg will raise that's for sure, but you get poor mpg in LA anyways unless u drive like a grandma.

I have been driving like grandma lately. Even on the freeway. I'm going to drive like that for this one last tank of gas, and then I'm going to drive like I normally do again. I'd rather get 20mpg and drive like I like, than get 21mpg and drive like a soccer mom.

you use 87octane on a teg and i went for about a 2 hour trip (to somewhere and back) on the highway and almost burned through 5/8 of my tank. i did same trip on 93 and didn't even use 1/4. :dunno:

wow, how does everyone here get such great gas mileage?? In the summer, I got 19 or 20 at the most and I was driving in a calm manner. I changed the oil and air filter but I never ever saw more than 20. Is this bad, or just normal for a 90?
