Mpg?

25 quid to go 180

Well I recon thats about 6 gal at £4.50 a gal [that\'s the conversion isn\'t it?]

180 divided by 6 = 30mpg bloody amazing

[clandestine]

I have to stick around £60 into mine and I fill her up again when she\'s approaching 400km

400kms  :2eek :2eek

I\'m always to scared to go anywhere near 300kms..

how many litres do you squeeze in when you fill up?

must be a very nearly empty tank there...

PS - I was told once its never very good to let a rotary engine get too low on fuel.. any truth in this?

[Bobfish]

not really ust rotarys, but more FDs. The baffling in the tanks are crap - on track anything under half a tank i get misfire because of fuel starvation and in a straight line anything under 8th of a tank gives me a misfire on WOT.

[yamaster]

on a full tank(over flowing lol) i can only get 150 miles to a full tank:burnout   dont think i want to know what that works out as lol:Hammer

[Jim_rx7]

Well I got more than 220miles to the tank.

I put some more petrol in before it got to the empty tho. If I had let it go on, I would have got at least another 20miles.

Last year I started a lap of the Nurburgring and about a 1/4 of the way round I realised the petrol light was on.  There was no misfire or anything and she got back to the garage no probs and it was still a sub 10 min lap.

I wouldn\'t recommend waiting for the light to come on before filling though, think I might run a dose of injector cleaner through soon as it\'s got quite low recently.

Currently getting very close to 400 miles from a tank.

That\'s keeping under 3.5k rpm and no boost.  Running in is a bugger!

[n4bes]

Cost me less for flights for two from Edinburgh to Heathrow than it did to drive back.......................kind says it all........lol.

Some more info on this...
 
just over 200 miles from a tank, mainly motorway driving, stock twins with a little modification (induction + exhaust)

[clandestine]

Unfortunately, I don\'t know how many litres I fill up with because I\'ve ditched all my fuel receipts but the yellow light will be on...when the yellow light turns red I start to pray!

What yellow light\'s that, then? Don\'t have one on mine (92 model)

[SupraZed]

I never knew that the fuel light had 2 colours!  Is that really the case?

Like SupraZed I\'ve never run mine empty enough to realise there\'s a \'red\' phase to the fuel light BUT is it a good idea to run it that empty?  You must stand a far higher chance of picking up crap from the bottom of the tank and impare fuel filter performance?

[andysmee]

Mine doesn\'t have yellow phase, just red and red and then a brown phase...to my pants
