Default Need help with bad mileage

Hi:

I have a '94 Accord EX and am getting terrible mileage. By my estimate, I get approximately 10-12 miles per gallon. I get about 150 miles per tank full. I have changed the thermostat and air filter. All hoses appear to be connected. Any ideas?

TIA

Ray

How about:

1. New Spark plugs (Stay with OEM)
2. New Distributor
3. New Rotor
4. New Spark Plug Wires
5. New PCV
6. Check and adjust air in all four tires per specs
7. New Air Filter.

Check the following (if applicable):

1. IACV
2. O2 Sensors
3. Cat
4. Un-neccessary crap in the car and trunk
5. Stop flooring it
6. Always keep the gas tank 1/4 full
