everyone with a ka especially with an s13, what are you mpg's?

[91KA]

with full tank i only get about 250 miles? likebaarely.

[ArticDragon192]

22-24 mpg with timing a little off, bad alignment, and a lead foot

[lrb_2000]

I got about 400 miles to a tank... on the freeway...

I never fill up in town... I don't go over 1/3 tank... that usually get's me like.. 150 miles? I dunno.. somewhere around 30mpg.. if i'm nice to her.

i'm using 3oz acetone per 10 gallons of gas though.. thats probably why it's higher

almost all highway miles, with rushhour every morning, about 25 miles...

[WOLFANATOR13]

i have my 89 ka24e and im getting 24 around town and 30 on the highways i have 2 homes one in philadelphia and one in lancaster county... 60 miles apart... so i get approx. 500 miles a week of travle. i run lucus oil stableizer and lucus injector cleaner/fuel conditioner with 89(middle grade) fuel...i got like 350-400 a tank... thats crammed full too...

now when i went to a meet and was out on the track i got 13 mpg

[vvaffle]

average 25mpg but I don't drive it too easy. I would say about 1 out of 5 times I accelerate I push it a little bit. This is on a DOHC that had 28 highway and 22 city when it was stock so I am fine with my mileage.

[Florida240sx]

23mpg when I was high school so everytime on my way from point A to point B it was a race. My vert just got 300miles on a tank and it's leaking gas somewhere lol.think it's the injectors.

[slipnfall]

27-28mpg at about 1/2 city, 1/2 HW. '91 octane. Timing slightly bumped.

[TXCumtrensh]

no cat, and a 3" exhaust, and a pop filter, i get 30-32mpg, no timing mods, no other mods. if i do the electric fans, and get the aluminum driveshaft.. id expect another few mpg's..

[paemt6220]

It gets better mpg than my durango, thats all i care about!

I really don't know, never pay attention.

[97ka-t]

I'm averaging BARELY 19mpg... it's ridiculous.. I don't know what's wrong..

[hek1620]

maybe cuz ur auto.

[97ka-t]

no way, not 19! I should be at least 22 or so..

[91KA]

i dont know what my mpg is but getting only 200 miles on a full tank, somethings wrong. any ideas? its really pissing me off especially when i use more gas driving conventionally on the freeway.someone who has experience help?

[whiterps13]

wtf, im lucky if i get 18mpg. seriously.

[dickie]

my car is effed up but when it was running it made 400 miles to a tank.

[JDMEnthused]

i get in the mid to high 20's are surprising as that is.. i hope everyone in here is running higher than at least 87 or 89..

[lrb_2000]

some people think that 87 works just fine for some reason though... I usually get 30mpg with 92... I just got to half a tank, and i've went 250 miles.

[ArticDragon192]

I run 87 Arco gas with no problems. 17 months and still running strong.

[naed240sx]

I was getting about 20-22. Im in college now. and hardly drive, so I dont care anymore. Now Im flooring it everytime im in my car . Its hard to hold back when you only drive like 2 times a week.

[Scooby24]

logged 31.4 mpg last time...mostly highway driving but there were a few full throttle spurts on that tank too.

I'd guess if I just put it on cruise and kept driving I'd get 33 mpg or so.

[Scooby24]

I'm averaging BARELY 19mpg... it's ridiculous.. I don't know what's wrong..

holy crap something is definately wrong.

When my car was an auto I got 350 miles to the tank....took about 13.5 or so to fill from empty.

That's about 26 mpg.

Then I swapped to manual and now get around 32.

effin sweet. Swap it.

And do a tune up that might be your problem.
