What MPG do you get?

<< < (8/9) > >>

Sharpshooter:
My 200Tdi with Allisport Full Width intercooler. ITG foam air Filter and silicone Hoses does over 33-34 on a trip. I stick under 3000 revs as per the book. Around town im getting 26-27. So thats how i got the intercooler past the wife. :)

Right then. I have done a long journey / running to and from work on veg oil and this is my result.

I did 367 miles and the guage needle was still above quarter of a tank. I put in 54litres of veg oil (this is all I had) and the needle still wasn't up to the usual full mark, (just below ful mark. usual needle goes slightly above full mark) so I guess I could have got another 10litres in.

So going on 65litres and 367miles (using the groovey link someone posted) that makes it 25mpg.

Since refil I did 220 miles today and needle is down to half way and most of that was motorway miles. So this tank may not be as good mpg.

Why would his garage bills be higher?  We've had our 110 V8 for nearly three years now and the only thing I have had to replace (apart from normal service items) was the alternator.  Our 110 V8 is the cheapest (apart from the fuel costs) motor to run I've ever owned  :dance:

Just joking. infact all i ever did to my 110 was the rear shoes. never let me down. only cost me a grand and it went straight through the MOT. 180k on the clock as well.

the best mpg i have had in the last year and a half is 24 mpg without my roof rack, its a 200tdi seem to get from about 18 to 21mpg on average :embarrassed:

I used to get 18-21 before the veg oil conversion but then it stayed in the low 20's after I changed the air filter. My air filter was incredibly bad and suffercating the engine.  :oops: :shocked: :roll:
