datsundude91 · 05-11-2010, 07:29 PM

I have an 81' Honda Civic Wagon. 12 valve EM1 CVCC engine. 5spd standard. 1750lbs curb weight. I have been averaging about 36 mpg.
I have already been using the pulse and glide technique and I put in Pulstar spark plugs. And I run mobil 1 10-30 synthetic oil.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can maximize my FE with a carburated car other than driving technique alone?

Thanks.
