Well as a few of you would know I put some stock injectors back into my ute along with the 4 spd auto. It is now making 313rwkw but check out the fuel economy I am getting (see pic), pretty amazing I think. Is anyone else getting figures like these?

Far out, I don't think I've ever seen that on my car!

Did you just do a long trip? Whats your average L/100ks??

Mine shows 11.2 at the moment, but I'm only getting 420km range! lol

Good result, but I find my Range and litres/100 to be pretty inacurate. When I fill up it says I'll get 580ks, but I generally only get around 450.

The l/100 also tends ot over read. If you keep an eye on the instant l/100, breathe on the accelerator and it instantly goes up, but take the foot off and roll down a hill, it takes quite a while for the numbers to come down. If I do a calculation when I fill up, I find the l/100 to be out by around 1 litre.

As you drive a few km's it will drop to around 520km unless you have a secret second fuel tank

Nah it wont, ive done a fair few tanks like this now. I literally get over 700klm per tank every tank averaging 9.8L/100

I've managed 9.8 across a tank on just highway driving. Im too much of a lead foot around town though.

my fuel guage will say empty, range will be zero, but there is always still 10L left in my tank. the L/km reading is always off as well.

ive seen 700 but not quite that high. Have done a couple of home to brissy trips (1700klm) & after a couple of hours of steady driving & then a reset with a full tank it'll do that, otherwise im lucky to see 500.

This is on your ute yeah? They few extra litres certainly helps...still a pretty good achievement. Most I ever got on my BF ute was about 740 with 5lt spare...never saw that on the DTE though.

Who needs a bloody Prius??? :wwww:
