I dunno about that 70+ mpg thing. Maybe! I've been languishing in the mid-high 60's for a while. I believe I lucked out with the weather on this tank.

But yes - it should improve with a cleaning of the EGR passages. I've been spraying the nuts and bolt heads with PB Blaster in preparation. Very rusty. They look awful. The gasket and 3 o-ring things are ready for me to pick up at local Honda place.
