Gas Problem!?!?!??!

Hey guys I'm new to this site since i recently purchased a used 2000 Honda Prelude. My question is what kind of mileage do you get out of a manual stock prelude... Because ive been getting 300km (roughly 186.4 miles) out of 1 full tank of gas which is 60L =( i changed spark plugs, o2 sensor, air filter, fuel filter. So far and yet i get the same mileage some 1 please give me some insight in what problem i might have or maybe this is just normal. Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day.

Try posting some details if you want a diagnosis.

If you ignore what people tell you, you are as useless as the thread.

Yep, and always in the wrong generation section.

they may be dumb questions and there's a ton of dumb people in this world. i might be just one of them u might deal with. Honestly i did look up the mileage on GOOGLE but the numbers didn't help me at all becuz the numbers were from brand new preludes. i just thought you guys might be helpful enough to point out somethings i might need to check. but i guess there's more negativity in this site than dumb people. i did search and i asked my mechanic 300 km is way too less for a full tank. I googled the numbers and ive done what i thought might give me a solution. i just wanted to know what kind of mileage your getting cuz i dont drive the car hard i switch at every 3-4k. And maybe u can just show or point me in a direction!
