I do mainly 'city' type driving, and on half a tank, i'll get about 150miles. This is on an '88 N/A

To increase the mileage:

Make sure it's tuned up frequently with spark plugs, wires, dist. cap and rotor, fuel filter and STP Oil Treatment. StP will make the oil more viscous, so less friction means less energy lost to heat.
ANother thing is to make sure your tires are well balanced, properly inflated and the car has good alignment.
Adding fuel system cleaner periodically will also help.
