Fuel economy?

Post by jabtronic »

Just wondering what fuel economy you guys are averaging? Just thought I'd ask since I'm currently getting 250k's from my stock 1.3l Sierra. According to this thread most people are getting 350.. so something must be wrong? :cry:

My car is starting to lose oil somehow too :cry: Time for a 4AGE? :D

I only got 250K from my old tank (dents lose some capacity) most 1.3's only get 13L per 100K really good nick sierras can get 10 L per 100.
I now have a 60L tank, so I get round 400K then fill it (no fuel gauge)
