RE: fuel usage - litres per 100 k

LOL- just had one done :) i noticed in my service manual that fuel pressure could cause excessive fuel use should only be 2.5-3.5 psi, so have changed it down from where I had it. (was set at 4.5 max) see how it goes.   cheers Jeff -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Errol Smith Sent: Thursday, 22 July 2004 6:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: fuel usage - litres per 100 k I would get a tune up J   Cheers Feral Errol www.datrats.com.au -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 9:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Com. Au Subject: fuel usage - litres per 100 k Importance: High   I took my car into scrutineering for qld challenge last night. - yeah it passed :) anyway I had a full tank when i left & wanted a full tank ready for saturday morning so i filled it up again when i got home. took nearly 9.0 ltrs to fill it. from my place to brisbane is about 60 or 70km return trip (i didnt think to measure it on the way) (I live at Cornubia, in behind the hyperdome) thats a lotta fuel, double what my wifes corrolla would use. so for the QLD challenge, which is 350k's plus getting there & back i am probably going to have to fill up twice. that equates to about 23 miles per gallon or 12 ltrs per 100 k's. my vq statesmans average fuel usage is around 15 ltrs per 100k does this sound right for the L16? - as far as i know its a stock L16 with twin su's.   cheers Jeff             --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
