You may very well pass just by doing the tune up items that you did as College Man mentioned. If not, come on back.Well I found out the problem after

Quoted From Beefy:
Is the engine running rough? Did the MPG drop occur suddenly or over a period of time? Check engine light on? Some good basics are air filter, check for vacuum leaks, tune-up, etc, but more info would help bud.
OK sorry about that yes it does idle rough no cell lights and it was over time I change air filter plugs wires cap rotor with proper gap on plugs some times I get the: smell of gas and it feels like it’s coursing and has no power
Ok Okay I have changed egr valve I have put in a new fast idel valve I have a long cold air intake I have aftermarket exhaust the stock headers my tires are wider than normal tires come stock with I tried to watch your videos eric but they won’t working I have checked the the compression is 100 percent the it’s not burning the oil I don’t know what else I do have a lil bit of valve lash the engine is self has about 80,000 miles I use 91 octane from chevron I use treatment every month n g k spark plugs n g k spark wires of I think it’s a n g k cap and rotor
Quoted From Beefy:
Whoa, okay… So you added a bunch of ‘performance’ parts to your Accord. This is helpful info. I wouldn’t expect this to drop your gas mileage that much, but it will drop it some. If you have added alot of parts to your car, I would expect a fair drop in MPG. How are you gauging the MPG? My formula has been to run the tank to near empty (don’t yell at me all, I know) and put in ten gallons. Then reset the itripometer and see how far I go until it is near the same spot on the fuel gage. This is how I have determined that my option-free Geo Prizm gets 30.5 mpg in the city delivering pizzas with my foot up it’s @ss.
I’ve got a 17 galon tanke it runs out at 178 miles so I devide the bye the 17 galons
