What kinda milage you get on a tank?
My swapped in 350 L98, I drive 1000 KM a week.
I get 320ish on 30Liters, which is 1/2 tank, now if I ran it to empty (never do) I could prolly get around 600 KM on a tank

20ish but only by keeping the rpm's very low. Light em up and watch it move towards E. Nothing we all did'nt know but at 4+ a gallon now we all care.

When it was running right, I seemed to be around 20'ish per gallon.

Re: What kinda milage you get on a tank?
30 litres is half a tank??? You sure thats right?
I remember last year, it only cost me about $42 to fill up. It was about a dollar per litre then.
I was getting 280 kms on a full tank last year, but i have a 750 DP and i was driving in bumper to bumper traffic every day. It was 20mins each way, with a 700R4. Which boils down to about 11 or 12 MPG.
However, with the T56, im getting 34 MPG on the highway. And about the same as before (with the 700R4) in the city.
But the figures youre giving sound a little too good to be true. Its in the range of 27 MPG (you must be doing alot of highway).
My van gets 750 kms on a full tank, which is 75 litres.
