Posted 13/03/04 07:14 AM Share Posted 13/03/04 07:14 AM This could be because the car is now breathing easier. This would mean more air is getting in which would need more petrol to mix with. Geea.

Guest DEVO Guests Posted 14/03/04 12:54 AM Share Posted 14/03/04 12:54 AM Ownaxr6t- I have an XT, not the turbo, so our cars would be different base figures anyway. Went for a big drive yesterday, not a lot of stop start and it seems to be setling down a bit now, maybe I just need a few 1000 kays through the filter first...

Thats right, long over due! :) Lifetime Members 4,348 Member For: 22y 7m 16d Gender: Male Location: West Brisbane Posted 14/03/04 04:03 AM Share Posted 14/03/04 04:03 AM Hey DEVO, try our XR6 N/A. Fuel consumption....lol. Plant your foot and watch the needle slowly move to the left.... :lol: Then again, she barely uses a drop just cruisin. Trouble is, I too suffer from an excessive content of lead in the right foot.

All I need to do now is paint a kangaroo on the rear wing and write Boeing 767 on the front gaurd. Anyone else got this high consumption.XR6T Modifications..............................................................NONE!!!! Here here...
