WOW... I'm impressed!

My CB9 avg'ed almost 26 mpg this second tank since I bought it.

I am going to run some more snake oil through her and see what's up...

I also need to check the cap, rotor, and spark plugs to see what kind of shape they are in.


My snake oil recipe so far if anyone is interested is a mixture of Marvel Mystery Oil and some Lucas fuel additive. It seems to work great and it is a slighty cheaper alternative to Seafoam. (More of it for the same or less money)

Also I have seen at least two other CB9's for sale in the Austin area at what appeared to be reasonable prices this week... I am thinking about checking at least one of them out and getting the story on it.

26? That's kinda low You should easily break 30 on the highway. I averaged 29 before I swapped. Course, your car does weigh a bit more

[1993sE]

yea well.. i get about 25 mpg and its all city and i gun it alot i wonder what id get high way...

[timmy0tool]

dang i get 24 . i only use 87 octane with a range of about 350 miles to the tank. i used to get 28 but i dunno. i got 215,000 miles on her.

Yeah, 26 I would say is average. My car got about 35mpg on the highway (h22) which I didnt think was too darn shabby. I get 26 around town beating on it.

Got any pics of the cobra?

I don't do much highway driving...

and when I do it is commonly at about 80-90 mph...

plus I just got her so I have had a pattern of reving her pretty high between shifts...

plus she has about 198,000 miles on her... Original plug wires so who knows about the rest at this point...

i probly only get 10mpg...seriously

you must be gassin it at every stop sign or stop light...damnn thats low mpg.

i usually get the same as timmy; 350-400 per tank.

[ACC0RD22]

i used to be lucky to get 300 per tank . . . havent fully filled in since i put new plug and wires in . . . but i got like 116 miles for like 4 1/4 gallons last time i used my trip odometer . . . its not too bad

[accordaffair]

I strive for 350 miles per fillup, which is not hard to do, I got 410 when I ran it to empty. I do all stop and go, but it's moderate.

[mrfreddio55]

i get about 25 mpg on a good day. but then again, its all city driving and i have a lead foot...

[nghtrydr23]

i only get 200 a tank sux ass i got fuel injector cleaners already didnt help any other ideas out there?

[Accordpwnz0r]

if my dads old ass diesel mercedez had the gas tank capacity of my moms van, he could go from my house in washington all the way to cali on one tank.
