Mileage Issue
 

mileage issue

currently have a B18C5
meaning 1.8L
I filled in Gas this morning, filled $20
for 19 liters going approx. 200 KM on it
is it little?
without going pass 5000rpm, highway driving constantly

Sounds like my car...But it's a y7

I wish I got that mileage. Mines worse.

I get about the same mileage.. 450/tank

10L/100km.....that is a little on the high side but it is cold outside. Im getting about 7L/100km highway. I still think its about normal for you

Re: Milage Issue
 

i always keep my revs under 3000, usually under 2500, except once in a while.

try to keep your revs low and only rip it a couple of times per tank


also, that mileage seems normal cuz its winter.

try some Lucas "Upper Cylinder Lubricant & Injector Cleaner" ... that stuff increased my fuel mileage (B18c) significantly

I agree, winter time, mileage on all cars decrease.

in winter 400-450 sounds pretty damn good. that is the range i get

^ yep.
should be very happy with 400-450
i get 470-510 winter, 550-600 in summer.

just wondering why get less mileage in the winter tho? curious

it takes more fuel to achieve stoich (air/fuel) because of the cold air

^ also because
people let their cars idle before driving off
gas companies have addatives in the gas in winter

i heard winter tires will affect the mileage also, is that correct?

yes sir, all these little things add up

that and if there is snow outside on the roads it will take more power to plow through it. I get about 10litres/100km as well so I guess your normally. I have a b16

Ok, i have a 90 Hatch si. At 100km/h, my car is hitting 3.2 rev. Is it ok? Plus its an automatic tranny.

^ that seems to be okay
my friends old 99 ex was at 3000rpm at 100km/h

at 100km/h mine is at 2500rpm with an auto tranny

or maybe the things in your car weight you down. Or your carrying a fat passanger lol!

that fat passanger might be one of my friend who drives a camry! LOL!
