Engine was tuned up (wires, plugs, cap and rotor, PCV valve and collapsed PCV hose were replaced). Also done: timing belt replaced, timing set, new thermostat, and a bunch of other little stuff the PO had neglected. I used new honda parts as I have heard that hondas are a bit finicky. I agree tires could be probably the biggest issue.
Car warms up to middle of the gauge and stays there while driving in cold and hot weather.
It was burning a little oil so I replaced the valve stem seals. I also removed the intake cleaned the throttle body and EGR ports. Egr valve was sticking and giving false readings thus a CEL. I cleaned it and now the CEL is gone. Only remaining error is the ELD. It does not trip a CEL light but I can see a code on the ECU. The car runs extremely well. I just drove it to work this morning. It kind of redeemed itself. I thought I was at 110 miles and just about to touch the half line. I drove it to work and it stayed up there until about 160 miles on the Odo. So, maybe it isn't as bad as I thought. I'll have to fill it up soon. I will get a better feeling on how it is doing then. Thank you all for your help.
