Default Average fuel milage from 98 non vtec

My girl has a 98 auto RS.What are some of the average numbers you guys are getting...Automatics is what i'm looking for. I'm not interested in 5 speed economy.

I would guess high 20's city low 30's highway if the engine is in good shape and the O2 sensor is in good condition.

My stick gets around 29 city and around 38 highway. That's with no boost of course.

You do realize there are hundreds of threads about fuel mileage, right?

Bogging your engine like that creates pressure on the block. I would advise against this. Gas mileage is more dependent on throttle position than gear and MPH. Slowly accelerate and shift at a normal RPM.

RPM does not matter as much as throttle position

My first reply in here was my guess to what an auto B18B should be able to get. Of course I have no personal experience, so I didn't post my experience. Other folks in here need to read and not just instantly throw up what they get, unless they have an automatic B18B Integra like the OP asked about.

generalizing mileage is pretty useless.

you'll get your e-mileage numbers with 100lb guys that live in cities with no hills no traffic and have gutted integras that weigh 1500 lbs and get 100mpg.

integra LS' were rated something like 24 city and 33 highway from the factory.

too many factors to get an accurate figure. but if your gf is getting something around those numbers, then she should be fine.
