Is there anyway to increase the s2k's MPG (fuel additives, etc...)? Thanks

Yeah, walk

 

HA! That was funny. How about going downhill in neutral!


Seriously,

I think only buying premium gas, not flooring the gas pedal all day, and maintaining the car with regular air/oil/filter changes would help. Other than not finding VTEC, I don't think there is much we can do.

I average about 23mpg/City and 27/Hwy.

 

Well walking doesn't increase the MPG, as you are not putting any miles on the car. How about pushing it with the transmission in gear but clutch in. This out miles on it without using any gasoline.

Drive smooth and easy, you will increase the fuel mileage.

Staying under 2500 RPM's will help too but with that 9000RPM Tach staring at ya, it is gonna take all your will power not to!

jeffrey...driven to the max

 

no revs, no sudden urges to floor the pedal, no street racing, no downshifting, no burnouts, no "testing the car for its max limits", no........

boring
heh even tho i dont actually have the car, but being on this post makes me feel like i have one hehe
might get one soon tho b4 they all sell out

 

Well, if you really want better mileage, you could always trade your Stook
for one of these:

 

Don't think so; you're better off in gear going downhill. If you're in neutral/idle, you must burn gas to keep it running. If in a gear that produces near idle revs with the gravity assist, the fuel injection will pretty near shut off, and you'll use less per distance.

I think.

(I get 28mpg doing 88 miles/day)

-dB

 

hmm just wondering has anyone here gone a full tank of gas without hitting V-TEC? i can't seem to go a day without 9000RPM let alone V-TEC

 

Ever since I broke the engine in, I Vtec every day that I can.
