  Wish i got that much outta my tank most i've done so far in my valver is about 200 miles!  Done 600 miles in my tractor mk 2 though

I very rarely put a full tank in but I had some money burning a hole on my pocket and only put a full tank in to see how much I could get. Might see if I can beat that when I get paid and go for 400 miles!

[Mr Blue]

i get about 250 to a tank.


anyone tried acetone yet?

How the hell are you getting 400 miles to a tank?? I've recently changed my 5th gear cog to one from a driver for better motorway crusing but i'm still only getting around 370 miles. However, that is averaging 80-85 mph and thats compared to the 300 I was getting, so it is an improvement.

Now I get

70 mph = 41 mph
85 mph = 36 mph

i dunno, i tend to get anywhere between 30-38 mpg round town, depending how light I am with my right foot, and on the motorway I get 41-43mpg. but that full tank wasnt used on the motorway at all.

put in a full tank today...will let you knwo how much i get...would tell you about the MGP but i havent got a clue what is up with my MFA

You dont need the MFA to calculate the mpg! Simply fill the tank - right to the top. Drive around, and use up whatever fuel you want. Make of a note of the total mileage done on the full tank, then refill it to the same level - this is why it needs to be full, then you can see the fuel at the top of the filler neck. Make of the note of the litres you put in, then MPG is simply the miles you did divided by the litres x 0.2200. That will convert litres to gallons.

Easy as pie. Only difficult bit is filling it up to the same level, but its not too much of an issue, as a little bit wont make a lot of difference

on that basis I got 38mpg as an average, not too bad I dnt think!
