1984KE70 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 How many km's to the tank should i get? I have a 84 KE70 4 Speed manual. I'm using Shell Unleaded atm...Well i've only filled up twice so far as i haven't had the car that long...My first tank of petrol i got 450 out off.... Quote
4DRFRK Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 400kms, mate out of a std 4k I'm using bp standard and valvesaver brand lead replacement, although mine is auto backed so its always reving to make the auto shift Quote
1984KE70 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Posted March 12, 2008 Ok cool as! Should i be using Lead Replacement? Quote
7shades Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 No need. Â 4k valve seats are hardened so will run unleaded just fine. Â I also get over 500k's per tank, but I'm running a very nicely tuned weber and a decent exhaust which helps a lot. Quote
greenmac80 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 I get 450-500 outta a tank in my 4k. got exhaust and 5 speed but it has two 12inch woofers and a truck battery in the boot weighin it down. Quote
reg_ke35 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 Wow, I only get 320 Km's out of a worked 4K which sucks :hmm: dunno whether its my right foot but I don't think I'm that bad :jamie: By the way I use Caltex Vortex 98 with a stock carbie. Â Reg Quote
coln72 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 used to get 400 of so ks from my twin carbed 5k (approx 35mpg for those who speak gods language). The stocker 3k before that would only get the same milage too. Â Would be a lot less if I got up it though - seen half a tank disappear during a motorkhana. Quote
Des Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 450 from my 4k but 800 from my ae82 :hmm: Quote
13BT_KE20 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 id be happy with 200+ out of my car......... Â 45ltr tank and a very thursty rota makes for expensive travels unfortunately Quote

KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted March 15, 2008 Report Posted March 15, 2008 i get 650km per tank driving like a granny, Dedicated LPG KE30 the filler is in the traditional spot and a huge tank fitted that takes up a lot of the boot. I hope to get better as i am fitting a 5 speed shortly. Quote
7shades Posted March 15, 2008 Report Posted March 15, 2008 What are you guys paying for LPG down there... its so expensive up here its negates the cost-saving aspect of converting... Quote
