eh nope. that's if the 14 is not working properly or trying to spin 17" chromes.
i've got the same engine and the wagon is actually heavier, and i need to change plugs /clean filter . etc.
it sees 6000rpm in almost every gear, runs the A/C and totes 500lbs most of the time, yet gives 400 - 450 off $105 super.

not really, but in my case it's a 40l tank. or at least that's how much my full will get me $90 - 105. so at 400-450k, the lower figure gives 10k/l or 28mpg

Laughing and this topic has been beaten on 2nr since the early days... always an interesting one tho...

Then

500km = $350

therefore $100 = 143km .......RX7 S4 Turbo


Now

500km = $60

therefore $100 = 834km ...... Nissan A32 Cefiro 2.0 V6 (with the help of something in the trunk)

Please note : these figures are rough averages for mixed driving conditions, including a fair amount of 'spirited' driving.

I just found out why my mileage isn't exactly stellar. Apparently two of my injectors were sticking in the open position occasionally Confused , causing those two cylinders to overfuel.
