Re: Easy Ways to improve feul economy for 92 Accord?

is that one of those things that 'spread' the spark out, to supposedly make it fire better? Tried one years ago, made no difference at all.

The "Tornado" is a finned device to insert into your air intake that is supposed to swirl the air for better fuel burning. In reality,it is more restriction on the airflow,and could come apart and be ingested by a cylinder,causing great damage.

Just another piece of junk.

I'm sure johnin had his tongue firmly planted in his cheek for that suggestion!

Depending on the vehicle's mileage,the O2 sensor could be getting "lazy" without the OBDII detecting it,I've seen specs on the various brands of sensor with 60K or 100K miles warranties,and IIRC,my 94 Integra manual says to check the sensor at 60K miles. I replaced it;the car's at 57K mi.(1994 model!) It seems to drive better,but I haven't checked the mileage yet.

Now that jim explained what was intented i knew what was meant. only reason I asked was the spark spreader I used was called the 'Spitfire' (spitfire, tornado, both great British aircraft) and claims to improve economy by giving a better spark. Thats all.
