Cruising Range?
Last question for me, did a search couldn't find anything so sorry if this has been asked. I've read through the manual and looked all over but I can't seem to find out if my 86 has a cruising range feature in the gauge display? It seems weird to me that it wouldn't. Any help would be appreciated!

I haven't seen the car, but the reports are that it doesn't have a display for estimated miles to empty.

One of the reason for this is that for a car like the FRS where fuel consumption has a big variance between simple cruise duty cycle and hard wide open driving has a big gap. Combined with smaller tank to save weight, the average can't be too consistent.
However, for long range highway, it is safe to say that with AT it can do about 30 minimum MPG and MT at 27mpg and higher in most cases. And the tank is about 13 usable gallons...so deducing that will give you easy calculations in the head about how much you have left to go.
