Default Re: Gas Mileage

400kms on a tank with city driving would be doing good for me! I normally get about 450km/tank with mostly highway. My worst tank was 17mpg, that was city driving in a cold snap -38*C! The best way 39.7mpg, that was on a road trip through western Ontario, driving their nasty 90km/h speed limit. I had 630km on the tank and the low fuel light just flicked on when I drove into the station.

I'm wanting to check out head porting to see if I can pick up some mileage. If you make an engine more efficient it uses less fuel. There's a guy @ turbododge.com by the name of mpgmike that does some interesting head work.
