Default using FPR to save gas...

I just put a B18A into my Crx, it is killing a lot of gas right now(about 15-18 mpg) Im getting a good deal on a FPR...would decreasing the fuel pressure help me out with my fuel guzzling problem?

You're probably better off finding out what is wrong w/ the engine before you decrease the fuel pressure. You should be making maybe ~30 mpg.

Are you sure you're not redlining everywhere you go?

Yea just check out the motor first and see what's wrong with it.

are your O2 sensors hooked up?

any codes/engine lights?

teh engine should not need this much fuel - so there is a problem.

prevention is better than cure
