ALF05T Member 453 Member For: 19y 8m 4d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 03/10/07 09:44 PM Posted 03/10/07 09:44 PM I get 200kms (19lt per 100kms) in the city from 35 to 40 lt of premium, with a squirt every day. On the Highway the best I have got out of a tank was 670kms. I have 2 fuel pumps, surge tank and 354rwkws so when you work it out that's pretty economical.

I believe it's very thirsty and at times when I fire her up it's got 20 or so kms less on the range and it hasn't even moved! Does anyone else suffer this problem and what sort of km's are you getting to a full take? can I do anything to fix this?, any feedback would be great thanks.Couple of suggestions....a) teaspoon of cementb) trade it in and get yourself a barina
