it all depends how you use your right foot, and what sort of driving you do, and what mods you have.

it could be as good as 8l/100km, or as bad as 30l/100km

@OP: What is YOUR mileage like? Is there a problem? Otherwise this has been covered extensively.

I don't have an EK4.

I wanted to see the difference between EK1 and EK4 fuel consumption - I did search but the results were vague

I got 420 as well on my B16a2.
Funny thing is now I get 420 on my b20vtec as well.
I guess its all in the tune.
But yeah, I think its faster to just write your mileage down for him then to bitch about whether its been covered before and the fundamentals of using search. This is a forum, not a textbook.

I get at least 450/tank out of mine, guess it entirely depends on how u drive and yeah depends on mods and tune.

There was news awhile ago that some petrol stations were selling bad fuel, not sure if you've heard about it. This happened randomly to any brand petrol station. I'm pretty sure Caltex has 98 fuel as well, I use it all the time seems fine :)

when quoting how many kms you guys get.. you gotta give more information.

after your claimed kms, when you go fill up, how many litres are you filling up ?

everyone may have a different fill up point. ie: i always fill a minimum of 43Litres (tank is 45Litres). i always try to drain my tank out

My EG Civic sedan VTI with D16Y1. CAI and header. Shitty tyres (very little grip lol).

I fill up when my light comes on (about 5L left). Usually get around 420-450km from those 40L used, depending on how I drive. Most of my mileage is suburban (killer).
I once made 537km before my fuel light came on, but about 300km of that was highway driving and I tailgated a Ford Territory on the way back to stay in their slipstream and reduce my fuel consumption (was starting to run low, a long way from home).


In my EF8 CRX SiR with B16A I used to get about the same, 400-450km off a full tank. But now I've done a head build and it hasn't been tuned so I only get like 300-350 LOL


I've seen a CRX with a B16A make 550-600km on a full tank. Suburban, with the odd squirt.


Engine needs to be healthy. Re-calibrate your TPS. Make sure you're getting onto temp nice and early. Use good fuel, not cheap sh!t.

When i drove my ek4 up from sydney when i bought it, got roughly around the 600km. Thats going from a Full tank right till the needle was just on empty. around town did about 450km to 500km with the odd squirt here and there.
