Normal Gas Consumption

[afrasay]

Also depends at what rpm you shift. Sabi mo hataw ka pag uwi mga 70-80kph. In highway driving ok lang yan constant kasi, pero sa city sandali ka lang makaka 80 kph then stop ka, then accelerate ulit. try to drive in a "suave" way. smooth acceleration and anticipating stops would help in bringing down your consumption.

looks normal to me... pero there is still room for improvement... baka nga nagkakatalo sa pagshift up... me i get around 6-7km/liter only para sa 96 galant ss ko eh... i usually shift up at 3k rpm, pero occasional hataw here and there hehe :D

[chieffy]

medyo malakas...fuel consumption ng SiR ko is 7-9 kms/ltr city driving (using energy conserving engine oil)...bukas palagi aircon...madalas pang 3000+ rpm ko lalo na pag maluwag ang daan, hataw...

[theveed]

just right to a tad bid on the high side for a 1.5... Oh, matic or manual? Pag matic expect a drop of 1-3k/li normally...

kaya ako nag diesel na hehe

[pepengtom]

chieffy a/t ba sir mo?

[ssaloon]

pepengtom, walang A/T ang SiR...

masyadong malakas yan. yung akin nakaka 9-11 km/liter, from bulacan to makati, araw-araw, tuwing rush hour pa ang biyahe ko kaya napaka-traffic. i assume naka-tune up ka naman so baka naman nasa driving style yan. once nagka-ganyan din ang fuel consumption ko, kaya lang laging birit ang ginagawa ko. try mo i-limit ang rpm mo hanggang mga 3000 lang. yun ang pinaka-optimum nun, enough power pero hindi naco-compromise ang fuel efficiency. check morin yung fuel injector, baka barado. maraming factors, such tire pressure, air filter , etc. naka-mags ka ba? kasi yung sa akin as in stock talaga, kaya matipid.

I think its because of the design of the engine the 1.6 is VTEC while the 1.5 is PGM-Fi. Mas matipid sa gas ang vtec engines ng honda. The way I understand the design of the engine when its in iddling its consumes less fuel because the vtec regulates the engine to use less fuel while the pgm-fi just maximizes the fuel and no control on the engine. : )

when you havent hit vtec range.. your car is only a 12-valver.... when it hits vtec range ... it becomes 16valves... hence the power... given the same weight of the car... the lesser 1.5L will have a "harder" time to work its power on the weight of the car.... the 1.6L sir engine has a lot of power to carry the weight.. hence.. the engine doesnt really work that hard to move the car compared to the 1.5L engine. (sana tama ako dito.. hehehe..)

I think tama kayo parang paa ko ang maykasalan.

but i just replace na yung sparkplug medyo humina na sya sa sunday palit din ako nang oil then check ko kung malakas talaga o hindi.

Salamat sa advise mga dudes
