Best mpg with your festiva?

[mikeyjd]

Best tank yet! Over 600 miles

627.3 miles on 9.692gallons = 64.723

[mikeyjd]

My last 3 tank average is 65.9mpg

[kingstonpygmies]

That's really good. I just did a full tune up and lost some mileage. Lighter weight oil, fuel filter, plugs and wires. I don't know how it happened. It its a pretty noticeable loss. I will know exactly Joe much when this tank is up

I'm getting good mileage outta my green bean 41.8 and that's with no interstate! I've only had it for 5 months and I love this car!

Good to hear it Chris. I'm glad your liking your Festiva and the money it's saving you

just pulled an easy 44.4 on the way back from boston... that's with stop and go and/or 70+ mph. this is Skippy BTW, the A/C and PS '91 GL, head work and the FMS cam are the ONLY mods (still rockin' the 12's)

Pretty solid at those speeds

Interstate is a mileage killer...well if you're going the speed limit or higher.

It's not my festy, but:

I should inject some helium into my right foot or something. My best MPG ever is just a hair over EPA.

One of the better mods invented thus far ^

Here is my fuel log as it stands. I probably capped out for the summer on my last tank as temps were in the upper 90's for it. It only gets colder from here on out sadly

It's good to be back on the forum, work has me busy lately. You guys are correct about it being manual. I love driving this car, and it shows. Haha, I drive the snot out of it sometimes. I like to cruise around 3k rpm in 5th on the freeway/interstate (if that doesn't mean anything to you. 3k + 5th gear = faster than your avaerage bear)

I'm happy & have fun with what I have

I know this is an old thread but did anyone fit the mpguino to there festiva? I see it uses a vss and one injector to calculate MPG. How would we use this without a vss ?

[bhazard]

There is a vss you can get for our cars. It's used with cruise control systems. I think it was actually for an aspire. Goes inline with the speedo cable.

Thanks man I appreciate the help!
