Default 1992 acura Integra GS only gets 200km/full tank

Can anyone suggest some ideas as why my gas mileage is so LOW?? Like this is way to little even for a car with 250km on it. And also my gas light warnig doesn't come on either :/

Please give me some feedback, thank you

that's low, when was you're last tune up? how do you drive?
bump so you can get some input.

Do you even know when the last major tune up was done on the car?

If not, you need to do or have that done, then check your milage. 94

I changed the oil just recently, I'm planning on changing the transmission oil also. What other "tune ups" would you recommend? Im also running on winter tires if that makes a difference

If you know how to inspect the belts, see if they're are worn, if not then change all your belts, water pump, tensioner, spark plugs, spark plug wires, dizzy cap and rotor. Just a few things to do

the belts look brand new, i don't see any cracks or wear on them whatsoever. but when i do start up the car i can hear the belts squealing of some sort not that loud but you can tell its the belt. would my fuel injectors also be an issue?

Altenator belt or ps belt is loose...just needs to be tightened. 5 min or less of work.
Do a standard tune-up and you should definetely see your mpg's go up.
