I did mine when I went on a 7 hour round trip and got my fuel to 9.8 per 100. Its back up now obviously as I drive short trips to work going through alot of lights though.. 10.8.

Car is running and felling great. I did 2 12hour days of driving, covering 2300km.Will be interesting to see how it goes with a load on the way home.Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710a using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
