Mine has 285/75/16 special tracks and the other has 35/10.5/16 Simex ET, roughly the same tread / size.

The two things that kill your mpg are cold starting and keep on hitting the turbo!

How much do you add and in what sort of ratio,  1/2 ltr of two stroke to 50ltr of diesel?

Just been out this morning and results are not good  :'(

Filled it up to one click on the pump, drove 30 miles, filled it up again at same pump.

30miles, 6.88 litres (1.5 gallon) = 20mpg
