Modelark Avenue
Year: 1997
Engine: 3.8L

Ive never seen the digital readout go below 24 mpg on a tank of fuel. Highway cruising at 55-60mph =33-35mpg. Over 500 miles on a tank highway driving.

Not on E85, the mpg readout doesn't read accurately at all with E85 in the tank. With TunerCat I can correct it. Calc the mpg at each fillup showed consistently in the 18-19 range, sometimes lower when all city driving.

With gas, it reads a tad LOW, I have tweaked mine a little to see if I can make it more accurate. 21.5 mpg on gas was 23.16 calc'd, 150 miles highway, 275 miles city (stop and go downtown like driving).

But E85, I can't get the actual mileage on the 3800 SC worth a darn.

1992 civic vx

44.3mpg all city/driving on base with 30mph speed limits and stop signs everywhere.

driving from abilene to dfw airport and back yielded 56mpg.


my lt1 z28 gets 17 city and 28-32 highway.

Hybrid or are they actually starting to get mpg like the old Civic HF's?

i dont think honda had a hybrid civic in 1992... its got a 92hp 1.5L sohc engine, wideband o2 sensor that helps put the car into a "lean burn" mode, 8 pound wheels, weighs in a 2092 pounds, and has a hard time getting out of its own way.

I missed the 1992 part.... That would be helpful being light and weak... I had heard about Honda doing the WB on something, didn't know that far back in time.

Now, drop in a 3800 in it... WHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
