I have been obtaining similar results on my 90 base car since converting it to a 5 speed. I was disappointed because I had assumed that LH 2.4.2 would give fuel economy at least as good, if not better, than what I had gotten with my 87 S which easily got 25-28 mpg in my normal mix of driving and over 30 on trips. This was partly because I see how clean the later cars are in emissions testing. But thinking about it now it makes sense that NOx will be lowered by running richer. I see roughly 24-26 mpg in a mix that includes about 70% 75 mph highway driving.
