    Re: im getting 19-23 mpg!!!!! HELP!!!!

    i'm not sure which is which. the plugs from the sensors are green for one and white for the other and have matching colored sockets that they plug into. the green plug o2 sensor should be installed in the bung on the merge of the #2 and#3 cylinders (the one closer to the distributor side of the engine) and the white plug o2 sensor should be installed on the bung on the #1 and #4 merge (closer to timing belt side). does that help?

    fixed it. No More CEL. So the O2 Sensor closest to the dizzy is O2 B. I also Checked the vacume advance and it wasn't holding vacume at either port so I made a Quick run to Junk and found one that was... 5 bucks YAY!!! I haven't driven it yet but it revs so much quicker now I hope this solves my MPH and my emissions. Thanks for the help!!!

    Back from Vegas... 29 MPG at 75 mph with A/C and 91 octane. I did switch the A/C on and off to help with economy. I did notice I have an electrical problem now. Im thinking bad ground. On to the hyper ground thread.

    I am getting exactly 21/gallon in my 87 accord lx...it is carbed. Should I still be getting a better fuel efficiency that 21? I have been ever since I got the car...except twice...I got 300 to the tank...I normally get 240-260. Any Ideas?

    I had bad gas mileage (around 20 mpg) and idle fluctuation in my 89 lxi, so I finally changed the tw sensor (coolant sensor). After that the idle fluctuation went away, and I got much better gas mileage (around 29 mpg). The car seemed to run a little better too. Hope this helps!
