Gas Mileage Results
1992 SE w/Automatic--
Having recently made the VTC solenoid ground short modification and then tweeking the timing slightly, my gas mileage (and performance) seems significantly improved.
I just finished driving from Austin, TX to State College, PA (with a few side trips) and averaged 25.5 MPG over 1,835 miles. I used 93 octane gas. The air conditioner ran the whole way. When possible, the typical cruising speed was around 80 MPH.
Prior to these modifications, I was averaging 17 MPG with a 50/50 mix of highway and city driving.
