what can i do to my 95 honda civic dx to get the best possible gas milage

 

i advanced the timing and ran premium in mine and went from getting, on a city/highway mix, about 22-23 to an average of about 32-35, and i once calculated it on a road trip down from Reno (about a 4-5000 ft elevation drop) and i averaged over 50 mpg on the 1.5l. advance it to about 18* BTDC. but premium fuel is a must.

 

better air filter and or an intake helps (not that much) people also say a turbo helps too.

 

anything that will make your engine breathe better. intake, throttle body, intake manifold, header, exhaust...it will all give you better MPGs.

 

pushing it will work to,

 

^ thats only usefull when you own a mustang.

Make the engine more efficient, make the car weigh less.

 

I followed Sacicons steps and advanced the timing, and I must say, the arrow doesnt seem to move much. Id say this would be the bigges bang for the buck since advancing timing doesnt cost anything!

 

did you do it with a timing light^^^^^?
