1/4 tank from brisbane to dayboro with my van sitting on 3-6K going through the hills. (it will do high RPM but chews fuel doing it.)

my fuel light was flashing as I came into the showgrounds.

NFI From sunnybank to asply and half way to the meet point and back to aspley 23 liters

then fill up at the servo out the front

then from the servo to the meet the quick way and back gauge says only 1/4 used but i don't believe it

Jeez, how'd u go getting to the nearest fuel station? Was there one in town? Didn't really pay attention.

well i got a stagea (RB25DET) - but i think my sensors are gone. took up 30L of fuel to get from Noosa to EightMilePlains and taking it easy the whole way :P

so about 20L per 100Kms :(

I think i need to get myself a tune, new AFM and new O2 Sensor and a major service :(

i filled up right before i left yesterday which was from noosa to aspley then to the location then back to the highway and a lil bit of my own mountain cruising i did 450kms and still have a quater of a tank left. tahts with no aircon.

50k around town + Kinga to Goldy 100-110Kph cruise cont. = 348 Km used 32.63 ltrs (9.43L/100Km)

Goldy to Aspley, Dayboro on to Kilcoy = 276Km used 32.84ltrs(11.89L/100km)

Kilcoy to home= 134KM (Yet to fill up)

10.42L/100K average (Not to shabby.)

From aspley to final meet = 1/2 tank.

final meet to my home = 1/2 and a bit.

no aircon too

That is not good...

My car with 'extensive' mods got 10.25litres per 100km on the day. Included all the city and country driving too. All with the air-con on.

it seems that im wasting abit too much fuel.

here are some of my results over the last couple of months

sorry they are in km/L not L/100kms

6.5km/L

6.7km/L

7.4km/L

6.8km/L

7.2km/L

so thats an average of 6.93km/L

have replaced the O2 sencor didnt make any see able difference, are running bp 98 for the last two tanks hoping that that will start to make a small improvement.

I have a pod filter with no shelding, so was going to get an aftermarket air box for it, any other ideas on improving km/L ? fuel filter, to improve fuel pressure? better coils?

I do about 50/50 city highway driving from coopers plains to the valley for work.

Stock ECU and running a little more boost than standard? If so it'll be running stupidly rich, which will obviously have an effect on your economy. Do you drive with a bit of a heavy foot?

Other than that, check for air leaks, give it a service, change the filters etc.

yer, 10psi, drive it pretty nice tho, so should be in closed loop most of the time.
