Hello, I picked up a 92 civic VX to replace a 94 DX that got totaled. I'm not getting the mileage that I should be. I'm only getting about 44mpg. I was getting 47-48 on the DX, so I think I should be getting even better than that with the VX. I've replaced the plugs, wires, air filter, fuel filter, engine oil, tranny oil, O2 sensor, checked the timing, adjusted the valves, good compression, alignment (the rear has some negative camber due to worn springs). Brakes aren't dragging, tire pressure is a few psi above stock. I can't figure out what I'm missing. Any thoughts?
