I thought a tune will it fix it but it hasn't 1000cc injectors Dump pipe and cat Sct4 Fuel filter K&N air filter Anything else I should look at Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94268-f6-bad-fuel-consumption/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you done all the obvious things like change air/fuel filter etc?As puff had stated, the right foot can have a lot to do with it....

Fpv06f New Member 2 Member For: 7y 27d Posted 18/09/18 07:33 AM Author Share Posted 18/09/18 07:33 AM Yes I have changed fuel filter I've been babying it just see how much I can get outta the tank. Still doesn't make a difference. What size fuel tank in the f6 ?

Having higher than normal consumption and when I bought the PW throttle body kit, it came with a new sensor. I had to get the new throttle body kit cause the stock one kept popping off. Once I installed the new kit, consumption went back to normal. Oh and it also has a lot to do with that right foot too.

Time for another cruise to stretch the legs and get that average fuel consumption down If you only get 250km from a full tank - sounds like something wrong in my opinion. I guess it depends on your tuner - did you tell them about the high fuel consumption at the time of getting the edit to see if they could do something about it?
