Blocked cat can cause issues, but would have to be fairly damaged/blocked/collapsed to cause bad fuel consumpion. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92156-fuel-problem/#findComment-1599994 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd probably get more like 550+km out of a tank of 98 on cruise control at 100+km/h on the highway for most of the tank.
