93 DX w/ B18B experiencing technical difficulties
I had thought my problem was only during winter but it happens every now and then in the summer now too.
I have a 99 B18b in my 93 dx hatch, and I get the shittiest gas mileage ever. If I'm lucky I might get 250km to a full tank. Now the problem that happens every now and then is when I go to start my car it just keeps cranking but doesnt fire up right away, I have to left of the key for a second then turn again and she fires up like a champ.
I have changed my plugs, fuel filter, oil is fine, doesnt burn, idles smooth.
My opinion is it has to do with my distributer. when i got the swap done I didnt get a B series, I kept my D series and mounted it on.
Could that be the reason for the non starts and or the poor gas mileage?
If anyone has some advice pls share!

I think you should check your ignition timing. D distributor on a B? check timing asap, then report back.
