Far out guys you do have a lead foot. I am getting between 500-600km a tank. Average fuel consumption is 12.6l/100km for city driving for me. Every so often I do give her a boot full to enjoy the drive home... keep in mind no freeway driving recently.

I put it down to the old 4spd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with 13L/100 X 350km = 45.5 litres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a 75litre tank being a ute of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's mainly after I got my tune that the figures dropped. I'm pretty sure my fuel gauge works fine so the only thing I can think of is the ecu doesn't calculate it correctly somewhere along the line.

wa g6et Member 657 Member For: 13y 4m 17d Gender: Male Location: Perth NOR Posted 06/03/12 12:50 AM Share Posted 06/03/12 12:50 AM Are ECU averages and other data based on the flow of the factory injectors if so does having bigger injectors fitted cause data to be incorrect?. Mine is out considerable since I had the tune with 60lb injectors. Trip computer average fuel consistantly 2-3 L/100km lower than actual usage calculated from fill up litres to km travelledAnyone know if there is a way to correct this?

How does the pcm get the instant fuel usage. Is it from fuel pressure or some sort of injector pulse calculation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
