Poor gas mileage on my 97 honda prelude?
For some reason i've been getting pretty bad gas mileage on my 5th gen 1997 prelude. I bought the car about 3 months ago and i've noticed i waste way too much gas i really don't know what it could be i've been told to check the o2 sensor but i don't know how to do that or what to even check for, any help will really be appreciated
If you've got a jack, jack up the car and look just before your catalyic converter and just after it. There will be your O2 sensors. If your not sure when the last time they were replaced its a good idea to replace them. Not very expensive (I got 2 top of the line for $90) and its simple as unscrewing the sensor and disconnecting it and screwing in and connecting the new one.
Maybe it needs a tune up, check the spark plugs, check the oil, check your tire pressure

- Honda Fit Gas Mileage problem? I hope some guys on here can help. I bought a 2013 Honda fit automatic which only had 11k miles on it. The car guzzles gas like there's no tomorrow. Tried fuel injection treatment, tire pressures good. No gas tank leaks. What could be going on?

- Which mini SUV is better for gas mileage and longevity? I have been looking at mini SUV's/crossovers and have narrowed down my choices to these 3: Nissan Rogue, Honda CR-V and Subaru Forester. Keep in mind that I'm not buying a brand new one from the year 2014 or 2013. I'm looking at the years 2010 - 2012. So which is the overall better choice?
