Miles per tank? I think miles per gallon would be more useful to know.
My record is 364 miles on 1 tank in the Si, but the tank wasn't empty.
I got 38.74 mpg.
My overall average since owning the Si is 32.04 mpg.

My 86 Si gets about 40 MPG highway. I haven't emptied the tank but got 400 KM at about 130 KPH with about a little more than 3/4 empty. Filled 28 litres. Since the tank is supposed to hold 45L I think the gauge is not reading correctly. I swapped an 85 DX cluster into the 86 to change from MPH to KPH. Although the DX is only 4L less at 41L there shouldn't be a significant difference in the gauges unless they have a different sender because of the size difference. Who knows??

On the 87 Si with the Teg engine on 3/4 tank I got about 350 miles and also close to 40 MPG. Haven't swapped clusters yet because of the VSS. No time! JS

Mine usually sat around 25-30 mpg depending on how pissed off i was at the stupid thing. Someone messed up the fast idle crap on it, so it would never run correctly.

Hopefully my ZC will get better. I used to get 48 with my old Dual point 89 CRX, but the only setback was that it ate about 2-3 quarts of oil every 400 miles or so.
