90lt tank is the GQ standard.
I used to get about 12lt per hundred.
It got a bit better with a snorkel and 2.5in sports exhaust went to 11lt per hundred.
I drove it easy and never reved it over 3000 though.
I used to fill it when I did 600 kays.......cause I never wanted to suck crap from the bottom of the tank. Also empty deisel tanks heat up and get moisture in them so I always tried to keep it full.
