Civic efficiency question
I've been looking at mid to late 90s civics. I've also searched the forum here and it seems that the Civics with the greatest ecomodding potential from this era seem to end with the '97 model year?
I've found many used 94-97s for sale that say they get 36 to low 40 mpgs, even the automatics. The '98s through say 2001 or 2002 seem to top out at 31-32 mpg. Some same era GM midsize cars are capable of this. These are all freeway #'s of course.
Are the '98 and newer Civics that much heavier and/or lack of a lock up transaxle? The early 90s Civics seem to have the very highest stock mpg rating but up here you can't find any they are all rusted out.
What year Civics during the 1990s have the best ecomodding potential?
