    For info lang din, the 1996 Civic LXi has an EFI engine ...

    Either a car is EFI or not EFI ... there is no such thing as semi-EFI.

    To clear lang bro, what i mean sa semi efi is Programmed-Fuel Injection, these is what the LXI engine is equipped of, it's not totally Electronic Fuel Injected (EFI) Engine, though it's fuel Injected but it's not electronically adjusting the fuel feed based on the condition of the engine.

    bro mejo mali langang term mo siguro na semi-efi, pero tama ka,i dont think na adjusting ang efi ng lxi kasi wala sya O2 sensor sa exhaust pipe.

    thanks bro, pasensya na namali lang ng term na nagamit but i hope nakatulong ung info para sa pag rule out ng fuel consumption.

    Do not invent terms.

    There are generally two types of EFI systems. Open loop EFI and closed loop EFI.

    Closed loop EFI systems have sensors on the engine which feedback into the ECU to self-adjust.

    Open loops EFI systems simply operate based on pre-programmed values based on sensors in the intake, crank angle, etc.

    How does that work? Does two cylinders run on carburators and the other two on fuel injection? I've been working on cars since I was a teen and my dad was a mechanic and I have never heard of semi-efi. As GH said it is either a carburator or fuel injection.

    yung civic lxi ko rin ang lakas lumaklak ng gas, simula nung pinaadjust ko timing ko dun na siya lumakas consumo. dati 10kn/l, ngayon 7.7km/l na lang. kaya ko pinaadjust din yung timing kasi tumotope siya dati pag nasa rekta na yung takbo, now wala ng tope pero lumkas naman sa gas. napansin ko na rin na mahina na humatak yung auto ko, san ba pwede magpatingin ng compression test baka kasi loss compression na rin siya.

    naka advance yung timing mo, dude. maybe more than 10 degrees kaya ganyan.

    use premium fuel at ibalik mo sa specs.

    misconception ito.

    vtec only engages at 3000 rpm (maybe more pa). so regular driving you're running at 12 valves pa din like the Lxi.

    1.6 vti and 1.5 lxi consume about the same given the proper condition of the engines. mas matipid pa ng bahagya yung Lxi kasi mas maliit, makikita ito pag pirming naka hinto sa traffic.

    kaya nga vti engine.mas matipid.oh sabi mo halos the same vti 1.6 at lxi 1.5.e dapat mas tipid pa ang 1.5.pano nalang pag 1.5 din un vti.640km manila-cagayan valley.full tank aabot na.

    ang 97 PH16 Vti, 12vaLVE pag low rev and pag hi rev 16valve VTEC

    ang 97 PH15 Lxi always 16 valve.

    Mas malakas ng onti sa gas ang lxi kesa VTi

    i suggest you have the timing and valve clearances checked too.

    spark plugs stick to bkr6e, or bkr5 NGK brand. i recommend yung bkr6.

    new air filter, lighter oil (10w-40).

    check your computations din, you may be sitting in traffic sometimes, which would affect your computations (idling in traffic gets you 0 km/liter).

    10-12 long drive on the Lxi is fine. the engine is an older design, after all.
