http://ecomodder.com/forum/attachmen...1&d=1375194691 502.08 miles, 13.215 gallon fill = 37.99 mpg. EPA combined for this car is 25 mpg so I'm doing OK. The car has a 17 gallon tank so I could have gone another 60 miles I guess. But I don't like to run the tank down very low, and I'm still getting used to this car. I certainly didn't want to run out of gas on the way to work. |
This Accord is still pretty much stock.
I bumped up the tires to about 42-43 psi. I'm considering going a bit higher, maybe in front. The ride is starting to get a bit hard. I've been EOC'ing, via ignition switch. That definitely helps. Today I plugged in my ScanGauge. So far I've only used it for a trip around the block. |
Hey! Brucepick is back. Excellent.

Congrats! I remember the excitement from my first 500 tank. It becomes fleeting as you improve, soon 500 will just be a reminder you'll have to get fuel in a few days/week lol

Nice work with the new steed, Bruce. Got a pic of the car? I'd like to add to the front page.
(Hope you don't mind I fleshed out the thread title a bit, too.) |
I'll get you a photo. :D
|
Thanks - pics posted!
|
Congrats Brucepick great results! EOC done safely is such a great FREE way to gain mpg's. (still waiting on my take to run lower to test my current results on fill up)
