Hello NEWB here 1989 CRX HF
Hello all. I have been reading this site for a long time and recently purchased a 1989 CRX HF with 210,000 miles on it. My first test of the car resulted in 43.75mpg 140 miles on 3.2 gallons. I recently discovered a large vacuum leak in the PCV valve hose and the valve itself was pretty gummed up.
Just gave her an oil change and tomorrow I will fill it up and have my second mpg average, however I expect it to be low because of the vacuum leak and because I let it run for a half hour or so testing other repairs. Nice site by the way, it looks like you all are pretty smart when it comes to fuel economy and I am eager to learn from all of you. Thanks, RickyD |
Welcome to the site! It's good to hear you are getting everything figure out with the crx. How do you like it otherwise.
Excited to see your numbers. |
Filled it up today and got a rating of 42.12 mpg 310 miles on 7.37 gallons
40/60 cty hwy avg 70mph on freeway This round I am going to try and average <= 60mph although it is hard because of no cruise control |
You can do it! How's it running? I'd shoot for a general tune up, should be posting a bit better numbers I'd think.
