I also have the same problem with my EG8 a recent example of how much it burns is I topped it up on Monday night, and by Tuesday afternoon it was half way down. I've been told it was probably cause of a bad air filter, but I recently enough changed my air filter & have been considering an air intake

Check the usual things first. Plugs,air filter,injectors/carb. etc. Then move on to sensors/engine.

I changed my spark plugs and mines burns pretty decent will use around $40-$45 in three day from chag to Pos and errands in between. Was using Bosch double tip platinum but changed to NGK RF- (cant remember the #) but just ask for honda Vtec plugs.

El Socorro Auto Supplies $80 for the set. A well known civic tuner reccommended this for me, given the price, mileage and performance, I cant complain.

Hey
just wanted to know
if I top up from a nearly empty tank on Sunday 8th & then it doesn't need another top off until about Friday 20th running to & from POS daily is that good MPG or bad in your opinion?
