hey kegs.. I had a MK L28, used to sit 3000rpm @100km/h in 4th with 4.6 diffs.. Went to 5 speed behind L28 reduced to around 2300-2400rpm in 5th @ 100km/h. could get around 8.5km to the liter with the 5th gear. Was around 6km to the liter with 4speed. Anyhows bugger the L28 put in turbo diesel.. All fuel averages were with a/c on


Good luck sterlo
