Outer Limits 4x4 Board

looking for fuel consumtion figures for tb42e and td42

My td42 NA was around 14l/100km... and it didn't change much when I threw a turbo on it. Generally hovered between 13 - 14l / 100km. I Am currently rebuilding the thing but don't expect it to change.

>700km out of a 95 lt tank.

we have a GQ 4.2ltr turbo diesel, 4inch lift, roof racks and 33x12.5 STT's. we get about 450km out of the 95ltr tank

td 4.2 gu big lift big tyres and roof rack get about 650km's from both main and sub tank IF I'm lucky .. they are thirsty sons of bitches

GU ute with td42 turbo - 35's , 3 inch lift , with exhaust and tune and usually return about 13 - 14 litres per hundred .

gq 4.2t 1st tank without fuel adjust ment was 350-95ltr (heavy right foot)

2nd with fuel adjustment tank was 300klm - aprox 80ltrs -same driving style

3rd tank eased of on the driving style n got 500k's witch is were is was befor turbo

GU 02 ute td42 with AXT t3 turbo on 33 stt's main tank 95l about 500kms when towing and driving normally.not towing 600kms .when the 35 12.5 et2's are on ill get 400kms in the bush thrashing the shit out of it,my old 88 model GQ td42 non turbo would get 700-800kms from 95l main tank

33s turboed td42 in a wagon
hwy so far as low as 10l/100ks sitting on the speed limit
around town keeping up with traffic or letting people know its not as slow as they think , up to around 15l/100ks

gq patrol na 4.2 diesel.. 2.5" exhaust get about 15l/100 havent used the full 90l yet.. generally only use about 65l and get about 450kms

getting new injectors soon and a tune so hopefully it will be better again..

my best conumption was 10l/100 sitting at 125 highway driving

got a gu td 4.2 preety stock except 2 in lift and steel rear bar. normally get 750ish kms out of both tanks b4 fuel light comes on. had injectors done and tune around 5000kms ago, didn't change consumption but seems to have more power.

got a td42 turbo intercooled 17 pound boost 33" tyres 4.11 diff gears I get 650km at 110km/h and 700km at 100km/h standard tank.

I get around 600kms per tank which is about 12-13L/100kms from 4.2 N/A diesel extractors and 2.5" exhaust with 33's. Mostly highway driving but around town/up beach/out bush is generally not much different, maybe around 14L/100km at worst.

HAHAHAHAHA

rofl i thought the same..

im gonna but the petrol 11.8 better than the deisel LOL.....
tb42 about the same technology as a toy 3f i wouldnt expect better than 18-19/100 would that be right ??

I have a tb42 and return about 350km's to 90-95l on gas, on petrol i have only ever run 1 tank and i think I got about 250km's to 65l. TB42 is only worth it if it is on gas.

TB42e

21l/100 on freeway, 24-25l/100km around town

These figures are lpg......havent bothered on petrol

shorty patrol on lpg with 32's and lift. Get about 25 Litres / 100kms around town. Is an auto which doesn't help..

Easy 25ltr/100 around town

97 tb42e, extractors 2 1/2 exhaust, snorkel 2'' lift 33'' mtz

I have a gq 4.2 td. It has a new pump,injectors and Turbo after market and Gas fumigation. It was all tuned by higway diesels coopers plains and returns around 11/100 at 135rwh. When not towing a jayco runs cool all day no matter were you go. When draging 1.3 tons around gets pretty warm, and uses 14/100.

Loaded up with camper on the back, 120 l of water, food, booze etc I averaged 15 / 100 neat last trip. Mixture of highway 110, soft gravel, hard gravel, all sorts. Happy with that.. Gained about .5 lt per 100 with new intercooler.

I have tb42e motor. get 300k's per 70 L of gas around town and 350-370 for long highway run. On petrol I get 850k's to bout 135 litres
