what motors are u guys running? with my b16 with s1 tranny... i get 20-23 mpg on average....im running a jdm gauge cluster, and i dont know how acurate the gas gauge is but, just this past week i got 336.7km from 8.5 gallons, so thats 24.6mpg.

is that about right? how many gallons does a DX hatch gas tank hold?

Damn you guys get way better gas mileage then me, i think i have a timing issue that needs to be worked out but its way to cold to be outside ****** with the car. I get about 250 miles per tank in a 89 hf w/a6. How many gallons does a hf tank carry anyways?

me to I put a half a tank in and it's gone in 60 Miles.
Right now it doesn't matter if I have a full tank my car isn't going anywhere till I get a new clutch. My speedo cable is also broken so I'm not putting any miles on anyway.
