How Many K's Do You Get To A Tank?

[clubby2084]

Anyone work in L/100Km ??

 

Something that might help...

 

KM Driven, Tank size, L/100

 

350klicks, 45, 12.86l/100

400klicks, 45, 11.25l/100

450klicks, 45, 10l/100

500klicks, 45, 9l/100

550klicks, 45, 8.18l/100

600klicks, 45, 7.5l/100

650klicks, 45, 6.92l/100

700klicks, 45, 6.43l/100

 

I used a 45 liter tank as this is what most Corolla's seem to have. But, if your car has a larger (or smaller) tank and want to work it out visit calculator-converter.com

I thought I was getting about 8.8 litres per 100 but I just did the maths again and either my numbers or my maths are very out. I'll have to recheck.

Allways, anything else is pointless

 

3kh ke35 6L /100k open roads, 7L mixed

4k kp61 6.5L/100k open, 8L mixed but drive it harder.

 

My gas is probably cooler than yours so I get more bang for buck :jamie:

Made a program for my calculator a little while ago to do this for me but roughly: (Litre / distance) x 100 = L/100km i.e. (38/400) x 100 = 9.5L/100

Just thought I would add my 2 cents.

While my 'rolla is off the road I drive my 1998 Nissan Pulsar.

It was getting around 9.5L/100km but then I did a full service and am now getting 8.3L/100 km,

amazing what a service can do!

Most of this driving is on the freeways but I drive it hard and use Shell V power fuel.

Cousin has a 3rz auto space cab 2wd hilux, after replacing the engine fan with a thermo and putting a CAI pod on it it gets 200k's more to a tank which is was only averaging 450 before hand.

how does just those 2 things improve fuel economy that drastically?

CAI = denser air = better economy.

 

Removing fan = less engine drag = better economy.

 

I did not believe the results until I seen them either but it is true.

Ke36, 5k, 4 speed, 4.11's, 450km's on the freeway. Would get heaps more with a 5 speed. Would of got more around town because of the 4 speed.

Out in the Clubsport the other day.

19.1l/100 around the burbs, Ouch!. (blowin out the cobwebs ya see!!!).

Then went for a cruise down to Litchfield NP and back, achieved and overall average of 10.6l/100. Sitting on the 130km/h limit.

None to shabby for a worked 355.

i have a 17 sprinter with a 20v stock with extractors and 2' system i get 450km per tank

thats treatind it good

[LukeAE71]

With my 20V AE71 I would get 600 k's to a tank.... it was so economical and it didn't change no matter how it was driven either :lolcry:

[Scott_87]

Wow I wish I got those sort of K's per tank or km/100k. With filling up my tank I would be lucky to get 400km's. I have a ke70 with a 5k running 32/36, extractors, 2 inch zorst with lol sports muffler.

 

Just had the car dyno'd and carbie rejected, I some how seemed to be getting more K's/100 before this though??? And no it wasn't running lean.

[19914afc]

after complete service and carb tune I went from about 16L/100kms to around 10L/100kms. And for some reason I use more petrol when I use premium rather than just regular (not ethanol)

[Trev]

Just got 544k's out of the seca (4age auto) from full (one click) to fuel light where it started spluttering going up a hill so close enough to 50L.

 

9.19 L/100km or 10.88 km/L
