Worst MPG ever

[93EXaesthetic]

I have been commuting like 40 miles / day..and yesterday i had the weakest mpg ever...it was 280 miles...not even racing just highway speeds speeds ...i think the rising prices in gas may have had a factor... i usually throw in 89 octane with a half tank of gas 15 bucks....i leave the odometer rolling until i fill in another 15 bucks in gas and that is burned off....and found 280 miles...just a wierd few days.. i usually average ..about 320...

That's not bad. Depends how much you were paying, something around 25mpg. Were you getting close to 30mpg highway before?

worst i got was around 16mph from philadelphia to state college (3hrs) but then again my average speed was 95

ON a full tank i can get maybe 320mg and thats doing between 70-80mph with the cruise control on but thats highway use.BUT ON THE STREET for get about it maybe like 15mg . NEW YORK STATE gas price for 93 is 2.87avg

I can get about 320 miles on a tank getting 24ish mpg on high going 75-80. and 20 with a mix of city and highway. I normally get 250-280 on a tank with a mixture of driving.

i just started putting about 8 bucks in my tank when i fill up...that represents 1/4 of the tank..and keeps it light when i race....

I constistantly achieve 370+ miles per tank and thats to empty, fuel light not on yet. This is about a good mix of city/highway/spirited driving (about an hours worth)

thanks ill look into that.

Doing 70 the whole time, I can get 450. The manual says I have a 17 gallon tank but it only fills upto 14 when I get to the red mark.

because 3 are in a reserve and you dont use that 3 until the light comes on...

[flacopower]

so i have 3 gallons when the gas light comes on!?!?!?!? WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME!! shit usually when i see the light i run to the gas station. shit i got at least another 60 miles then lol

My old topaz (read:ford) couldn't even get me 200 per tank most of the time. I would expect 180 per tank. Even keeping rpm's below 2000 I couldn't get better than 220. And this is in an 89 hp 2.3 I4. God damn that machine When I first drove a cb7 at a honda dealership I was about to hump the car It was so much faster and handled/braked so much better. The topaz tank is the same capacity as the accords IIRC.

the worst i ever got in my cb7 was 8mpg. BUT my computer wasn't plugged in all the way, i was one tooth off on my belt...and something else, but i can't remember. I now get about 26 main city driving.
