Why don't you tell us something useful like how many miles you've driven? IIRC i used to get 320-340 miles to a tank in my Si's.


If there's no code yet, your 02 sensor may be starting to die.

for some odd reason when i needed to replace my leaky crank seal in my 1.6 i got better gas milage... so in light of that, is ur oil topped off too much? what grade gas do u use? as shady as it sounds, it might be where u bought the gas from also...

its not as much how far you drive as it is how you drive...

i can streach a tank for a long long time if i grandma it... if i beat on it i can go througha tank pretty quick

i dont really pay attentino to the mileage but just how much money i pay at the pump... i can go for a week on 20 bucks my job is close to me but i just drive around a bit
