why is my 2.8 pajero only doing 12 mpg??

<< < (2/3) > >>

bigezzo:
my old pajero 2.5 lwbs did 25 mpg on a motorway run sat at a steady 56-60mph....

my old swb 2.5 auto with 33s and a roof rack did 18 mpg on a run....

dread what it did round town....

unfortunately mate jap diesels arent sippers..... :(

jamesey:
so you reckon 12mpg is the norm? , i can get bio diesel for 70ppl so i guess ill go down that route :afro:

Hitman:
I run mine on Bio. I actually get better economy / performance. Bio is also a good detergent so if it is down to any poor fueling, it could help clear the lines and injectors.
Be prepared to go through a couple or three fuel filters though as it cleans out your tank.

No it's not the norm mate, in my LWB 2.8 I'm getting 25-27 mpg, daily driving on mixed speed roads.
My old SWB V6 running 33" simex's was down to 12-15 on the same daily trip.
