fuel consumption

Post by Grimey »

had a search around on here, but couldnt find the answer. My mate is looking at a 98 4.2d patrol, just wondering what kind of fuel consumption he would be looking at? with 33s

Between 10-30 l/100kms depending on load, conditions (sand etc), driving style and various factors.

Unloaded My ute on 35's gets 11/100.
Loaded, with 400kg of stuff 14l/100 add a camper @ 900kg I get 16l/100.
On the beach with the same setup about 22l/100km, and very soft sand near 30l/100

Best I got with the same vehicle (33" tyress/2" lift) was between 12 and 20 lite per 100. Depends how I drove.

One night while spotlighting and idling around paddocks in 1st and 2nd gear I was stunned ti find that I used 92 litres for 105 kms!

BTW, i have a 2000 4.2TD and generally get around 14l/100km's. Doesn't tend to change much though. Got similar figures going across the Simpson fully loaded. Has 33's and about 3" lift
