Just for comparison, my 89s 5spd with 195/60-15s gets mileage similar to what you reported getting with your 86 according to my edu. I've wondered what it would read if I switched to larger diameter tires. The actual mpg would probably increase but the edu reading would probably decrease. Since the issue goes way back in your car's history, you can probably rule out tuneup, tire pressure, dragging brakes, etc.
