Hello,I'm new here and I have a 94 vx. It's 100% stock except vacuum gauge, proper size tires, runs great,clean egr ports,new 02,no check engine light. I am a mechanic & have rebuilt many many honda motors including this one.It is timed perfectly,proper compression,valve lash ect. I got 55mpg 3 times.Once i was going about 55 on a long trip feathering gas.The other 2 times was hwy/city mix shutting engine off and coasting alot,also watching vacuum gauge to keep in lean burn.Nnder normal conditions without shutting engine off, city/hwy is averaging about 43mpg

My question is for all vx owners who get more then 55mpg. What am i doing wrong to not get more then 55mpg?
