what the most mileage u can get out of a honda engine??
As in miles per gallon, or miles driven?
The most miles driven you can get is the point the engine totally craps out on you, and that depends on wether you abuse it or maintain it properly.

It all depends on how you drive your car and maintain it. My buddies accord was at 290,xxx and still had some life in it but then he totaled it.
I sold it some years ago, but my '90 Civic Si had over 265,000 miles on at the time. Used about 1/2 to 3/4 quart oil between 5000 mile change intervals. Compression was 188-192 on all 4 cylinders. No external leaks. All original except of course for T-belt, water pumps, and spark plugs. I should have kept it.

I was looking to buy an Integra a couple months ago and I test drove a 1996 LS with 290K. It was 100% bone stock, one owner and she was an old lady.
I tell you, the car felt like it just rolled out of the factory yesterday. She said the only thing she has done is regular maint and change the axle boots and radiator.
If the car is well maintained (Think old lady original owner) It should last forever.

I agree with well maintained, i just got an integra with 262k on it, drives fine, got power, the heat and all the lights and even the cig lighter works still.
If you can get someone that really did all the work when they were supposed to, whether its replacing this or that or doing the timing belt on time, its means the world to a honda.
-this teg has 260,000 miles, it runs great,
-i had a green accord that had about 136k miles on it, a week after purchase the motor blew a whole in one of its pistons, the kid before me had raced it
, like a lot
so its all about who had it before you and how nice they were to it

I have a buddy that has a 91 accord with 340000+ miles on its stock engine. its completley balless because of bad compression but it still runs! I just wish I had a picture of the odometer and video of it running so someone would belive me
wow 300k miles?? thats amazing but only with proper maintainence and not racing it all the time i guess youll get that much out of a honda engine, u got pics of ur accord with that many miles on it? i got my 01 gsr integra with 55k miles on it right now.
A friend of mine has 1,000,000 km's on an A18 block Accord.. (third gen).
I had 2 third gen accords, one at 268,000 before it died (no oil changes for over 5 years, just "topping up", randomly.. Sister driven) - and another was 247,000 km's before it got scrapped cus the body was done..
My Integra has 197,000 km's .. No problems.. 170-175 compression across ..

A buddy of mine has an ek automatic with 230,000 on it, engine is good, but the trans is starting to shift really hard. He abuses the hell out of it though. That car has been off roading and neglected, but still runs.
88 honda prelude si had 330k on original motor when was sold and i still see the lady sold it to driving it everyday and that was over a year ago never blew smoke burned a little bit of oil but all in all was an awsome car it probly has 350K on it now still goin strong
I saw a EK coupe on cars.com awhile back with around 940,000 and they were sellin it and it had all the reciepts for all the timing belts, cltches, water pumps and everything it went threw. It was crazy
Everyone I talk to tells me I can get around 300,000 from my LS if i dont trash her. Ive had that number in my head for almost half a year. its a good number to hope for cuz Im hardly a 3rd of the way there.
