as the tittle states i am getting shitty gas mileage what would couse this like every thing that would make it burn that much well it blows most of it out and stinks so bad ant help guys

 

i would definitly check timing on that most likely your problem.

 

Any cel or mods done to the car?

That's beyond bad milage.

 

take your foot off the gas

 

thats got to be a record! What is done to the car?

 

It's blowing smoke and it smells bad?

Leaky exhaust, shot gaskets, burning oil... something has to be pretty screwed up for a CRX to get that kind of mileage.

 

Is your gas gauge accurate? Any dents in the gas tank? Any fuel leaks? Maybe someone is stealing your gas because that is way beyond running bad or something natural. 60-80 miles per tank is just ridiculous. What mods were done?

 

wow thats terrible..

sounds like alot of things together making it run so bad,,probaby o2 sensor,tire pressure,clutch,etc,etc..maybe something wrong with the tps and timing as well

is the little light on the ecu blinking?

 

thats insane! I thought iwas getting bas gas milage at 220 a tank! like they said check ur timing, do you have a fpr? man i've seen trucks w/ better gas milage.

 

Sounds like your fuel map is going wackle. Try unplug the battery cable, wait a couple of minutes, then reconnect and see if that help. If not, borrow an ECU from a known good working car and swap that in to see if that help. If those don't help, bring it to a machanic

 

my mustang used to get 80-100miles full tank but that was for another reason is their a hole in your gas tank?

 

Make sure the fuel is getting from the filler neck to the tank, and make sure it is staying in the tank, or in general find the leak.

 

Does it feel like it has less power? Might be a clogged cat?

 

dude you gotta hole in your gastank....

 

bad fuel filter?

 

Any CELs? You must have a massive leak somewhere or your EVAC system is fubar.

 

lol i changed the fuel pump fuel filter blew out the lines and it has a cold air intake and a 2.5 exaust system adjustable fpr with no gauge has no leaks what so ever only smokes when i start it up in the morning other than that no more smoke but stinks of gas and my gauge is good codes 5 always witch is map and code 9 some times when i drive long distance well 50 miles then fill it up but it runs better than my buddys ls i havent a clue what is wrong and 3 different shops dont either and when i drive in town it heats up to normal but when at high speeds the temp is so low about a quarter the way to norm if that and when i drive it past 3500 the batt light comes on booooooooooooooooo

 

your ECT sensor could cause the problem. When they go bad they can make the ECU dump fuel into the motor making it run rich as hell (safty feature like closed loop mode when CEL is on.), I have seen it happen. All though not as common on Hondas as other cars. Cheap fix, just buy the $20.00 sensor and see what happens (Unless you know how to properly diagnos the sensor first)

 

is it even possible to have that kind of milage???? i would have to say your leaking gas somewhere.. because that just seems impossible .

 

And if this thread doesn't help you, then go make another one using all caps and shitty spelling and no punctuation!!!

my igniter went bad once (no cel), and it smoked bad and smelled horrible . I did'nt drive it, so I dont know that it could cause milage like that. o man the smell was terrible.
