Here in Spain the civic lsi was sold .
with 2 stages vtec 90cv or 115hp . according to models .

had the econo light.

if the econo light was activated. consume less gasoline .

I left a civic lsi to change a door. I tried it a couple of trips .

the light comes on if:
the engine is at operating temperature .
You're just over (can not remember the number ) rpm
these less than 2500 rpm.
not step on the accelerator.
step on the accelerator to about half .
if you're on the go three, four or five.

This engine had a vtec system. which placed in operation 12 valves until 3000 rpm. over 3000 rpm worked with 16 valves .

I think the econo light comes on when conditions are faborables to consume little gasoline .

this car has to comply with antipollution standard. euro 1 or 2. not think it works in lean mixture.

the car owner told me that this car consumed very little.
do not ask that consumption had.

model with 3 stage vtec was the Japanese model. sold in Japan. with 130hp.

want to drive without light econo ?

change gears at 2500rpm.
not step over half throttle.
try going on the march three, four or five.
