I just picked up a 1990 crx dx and have gotten 36-38 mpg on the highway at 60 mph. Kinda wondering what everyone else gets. This is a lot better than what the specs say it will get. Is that normal?

 

i get close to 40+on a chipped ecu! little less if i drive with a lead foot everywhere i go.

 

In town I get 31ish and if its all highway, i get around 39-40ish, car is a well maintained all stock 1991 Civic DX hatchback.

 

1990 crx si, around 30 mpg. I don't understand why mine is so low... I do have a lead foot though

 

28mpg City
38mpg Highway

1991 CRX Si with B16A and YS1 trans

 

I normally drive with an *egg* under the gas pedal ..... and do a constant 75 on the highway.......91-si, and I get 35-38 to the gallon

 

Yea I get around 36 mpg on the freeway at about 75 mph. A little more if I am eay on the foot peddle.All stock 1.5 liter 89 civic 2 door dx.

 

There are soo many threads with this topic.....

Why don't people search?

 

90 dx hatch i usu get around 38mpg but its a bit worse in the winter

 

my old 89 Crx dx best was 47mpg...i'd say high 30's consistently. however it was an Si D16 with the DPFI manifold.

my current 91 Crx Si with B16A1 gets 30mpg tops, in town or highway as far as i can tell

i am thinking hard about the 5th gear LS swap...anyone have numbers on that?

 

i get anywhere from 35-40, depending on my driving style & traffic

 

i get around 28-32 because i have a lead foot and there's a blow dryer connected to my header

 

I just currently changed my plugs, filter, and rechecked timing which needed a slight adjustment. wow 4+ MPG

That brings me to 29MPG in town, and 36 on the HWY.

Not bad for a 88 CRX with an LS/Vtec

Changed to a True K&N filter from a junk autozone cone filter, and changed from stock style plugs to NGK irridiums

 

22-25 ish boosted b16

its funny cuz my old hatch with stock motor mpfi swap and 5 speed got like 20..

 

1989 crx si, 30mpg all day in town, with a heavy foot

I did but when you search "CRX/CIVIC gas mileage" or "CRX MPG" nothing that relates to my question shows up. If you can find it then you are a master at using the search engine on this site. Sometimes I swear its hit or miss.

EDIT: I take that back, just found a one that fits my title. Sorry honda-tech for wasting your time.

 

i have an 89 CRX DX with slight mods and around town i get about 30 i don't drive local highways very often but on long road trips i get about 33 doing 90+ mph.

 

I just swaped my A6 for a D16Z6 and drove 150 miles all highway and only used a 1/4 tank. It blew my mind. My A6 would have used 3/4 tanks to drive the same distance.

 

Everyones MPG will differ anyways. It is way to subjective. One guy might mash it all over town the other might drive like a grandma.
