Honestly thought this one was going to be worse cause I had the brake pads not fully releasing again for a short bit and left the car idling for awhile to run the heat while helping a friend with a flat.

I've got a new issue where oil pressure is dropping over time very low, even into the teens of PSI. If I restart the car pressure builds back up so I keep doing that. Not sure what the issue is or if it impacts my MPG any.

Replaced brake booster/master cylinder, old one was filling up the brake booster with brake fluid then having it get sucked into the engine. Also replaced the front right brake caliper. Misaligned the brake rod so brakes weren't fully disengaging and causing a ton of loss on MPG. I think I fixed it now, I hope.

Still need to fix brake booster, ordered the part but hasn't arrived. Also engine temps can drop all the way to the cold line when downhill coasting. I think there is no thermostat or it's stuck open so I've also bought one of those and will be putting it on the car. This cold weather and engine issues are killing my MPG.

I really need to fix my brake booster again, my results I feel have been impacted a bit since the used one off my spare CRX I had installed has sprung a vacuum leak as well which causes my RPM's to go up to 1500 while braking most the time. My MPG results were steadily raising till then but also it began to get cold around the same time so both could be having an impact.

Took a plastic undertray from another car I got for free and zip tied it onto my CRX however the exhaust is melting through it. I assumed it would be more heat resistant since it was made for a car for this use but I suppose their exhaust wasn't as close to it.

for about a hundred miles of this I had a car jack and car battery in the back but almost all this travel was interstate, I'm not sure why my results are so low. I even had my windows either mostly or all the way up which typically I drive interstate in the daytime and have both windows all the way down. So I guess at least an additional 50 pounds for 1/3 of the driving, driving when it was cooler outside, and not following behind an 18 wheeler (at a safe distance) impacted this tank a lot. I mean 200 miles of that tank was a single trip so my MPG should have been over 50, I spent most the time in the green zone on my vacc gauge, but I did have to go over two mountains. Still just confused why it wasn't over 50

Just like my last really good tank, this one was mostly interstate and highway travel.

My vacuum gauge has colored zones to indicate good and poor eco so my tactic has been to not allow myself to press the accelerator enough to leave the green zone as much as possible, even when accelerating. If I have to accelerate more my second self limit point is 10 on the vacuum gauge, then if that isn't enough I try to just never go past 5 in the red zone. I also attempt to shift as soon as the car will let me which is generally every 10mph increase. so 10mph go to 2nd, 20mph go to 3rd, etc. I also try to not leave the green when going uphill allowing myself to decelerate as long as I'm not holding up traffic and using the downhill to reaccelerate. I also try to engine off coast when possible and ride 18wheeler slip steams at a safe distance. Overall the general trend seems to be my mpg has been on the rise with these tactics, but I can't do them as much in heavy traffic, or long steep hills. Long hills Idk what to do yet since I can't use my initial inertia to get me most the way up them I try to stay in as high of a gear as possible and press all the way down to the red power zone just about 5 on the vacuum gauge. I have no idea if this is a good option or not however. Honestly not 100% about anything I am doing, just doing what feels right and recording things here.

I think tank being so low mpg was mostly cause it was short distance drives only and I had covid so I probably wasn't as focused as I could have been. No worries though I wasn't going to public places with people, that's why it was all super short distance drives. Visiting family who also had covid at the same time as me. Was certainly a surprise cause my gas needle was right on half a tank which should have been like 5 gallons not over 6.

The jump battery definately works for keeping the battery alive while engine off coasting at night. My low results here are more from driving in busy traffic though, I tend to accelerate twice as fast when surrounded by heavy traffic which is still slower than everyone else though

Been experimenting with engine off coasting but was having issues at night with the battery getting too low. Most people seem to go with a deepcycle battery for this reason but I went the opposite direction getting a 12 pound cheap amazon $70 agm battery that's meant as a secondary battery to supplement sound systems. I chose that battery cause A $100 cheaper than the normal battery and B much lighter than the normal battery. Now the battery does have the drawback of having only half the capacity of the stock battery so it dies faster, but it also charges faster. Had the idea tonight just before I got gas to supplement that battery using my jumpstart battery. My jumpstart battery is wired up to my car battery at all times already. It only weighs about 3 pounds I think, I just always had it in the car to begin with in case I needed it so all I am doing now is just when I cut the engine, I lean over and hit the jumpstart button and it kicks on and keeps my battery charged. Boom, solves the engine off coasting issues with the lightweight battery so deep cycle isn't necessary. I charge it off a cig lighter plug so I'll charge it during the day and use it at night. I'll update how it goes on the next fill up

First tank with the new O2 sensor. Engine is certainly running way smoother and has more usable power. I think I need to possibly change my driving methods since I had modified my habits for the best results with how the engine used to run. New O2 sensor doesn't heat up quick enough to keep the check engine light off so I have to turn the car off and turn it back on once I start getting readings from the O2 sensor and oddly it cools off really fast so even if the engine is off for 5 minutes it won't heat back up till I get moving, in fact it doesn't seem to get hot enough to work even when I'm sitting idle. Need to look into this further. I also notice if I drive with the check engine light on the engine will run rich coasting or idle but lean with any amount of throttle, but with the check engine light off it runs optimally most of the time unless I drop throttle enough for 5 or less on the vacuum gauge then it goes to rich which seems normal.

This is my last tank with check engine light and old O2 Sensor. Right after I filled up I spent today working on the car, and got a new O2 sensor on. Only been driving a day with it BUT MAN there is a difference. I'm not driving the same car anymore! Check engine light is gone, it's running way smoother, feels more responsive, and is way quieter. I have a good feeling my MPG is going to be substantially better on my next log entry.

Been trying to get the hang of the Vacuum gauge. Also close to the end of this tank I installed an air/fuel ratio gauge but I have a check engine light on now. I'd be in more of a rush to fix it but surprisingly the smell of gas isn't as strong from my car now so I wonder if it's actually making the car run leaner. Air/fuel gauge shows I'm running pretty lean but I do smell gas still so I'm hoping the o2 sensor is just old and can't put out a strong enough signal for the both the ECU and the Gauge since I'm 99% positive I did the wiring alright. Might try to shorten the cable to the gauge too since I did leave a little extra just in case and it might just be too much. Been trying to replace the o2 sensor but old one is seized on there really tight so I've been spraying penetrating oil on it every day for a few days now. Probably going to run this next tank all the way through with a check engine light on sadly.

Part way into this tank I started shifting earlier since I had a tiny bit more power thanks to correcting the cold air intake tube a week or two ago.

Also my mile tracking is going to be more precise from now on. The log app I was using before couldn't do decimals which is why my logs before joining the site don't contain any decimals in the mileage

Added a bottle of Fuel injector cleaner just to see if it'd do anything out of curiosity, and added a cut plastic tub lid to cover half of my grill opening from the inside, since I have a half sized radiator anyways, somehow I got exactly the same MPG again.

Right before fill up I changed the cold air intake tube to streamline airflow, this made the air flow significantly less turbulent inside the tube cause old one was beyond trash, zig zaggy, and ribbed on the inside greatly. New tube was smooth and straight with only a single slight bend. I felt better throttle response so I know it worked but not sure if my mpg dip was from that, or if I had a heavier foot feeling better throttle response. Car runs rich so I was hoping more air could help but I think the MAP readings are making the ECU compensate for more air and keep it rich.

Just did an oil change, installed new spark plugs, aired tires to 40psi, topped up transmission fluid, cleaned air filter, changed fuel filter, etc. Before this tank so good mpg results. Keep in mind this is with the car running so rich it failed emissions testing. Car also has a high idle.
