why is my fuel mileage so bad, what should i be getting?

 

what gears? stock tires? any other mods?

 

heavy foot, idle alot ?

 

my biggest problem is the foot issue, i love showing them damn ricers the thick black smoke

 

codes? fluids? wind resistance?

the list goes on and on.

 

I get 600 miles per tank on average, what are you getting? I think 600 miles/tank is not too bad. Mind you I haven't put in my turbo yet, that could change quickly.

 

In the winter I get an average of 800 km (500 mi) per tank. In the summer I get 950 km (590 mi) in town and as much as 1180 km (730 mi) on the HWY.

Vancouver, BC to Calgary, AB is approximately 650 mi one way. Done this trip many times in good weather and see just under 1200 km every time. I normally need to stop to go to the washroom but not for fuel.

 

Ditto, I'm so used to converting to miles I forget that sometimes I don't need to. We made it to BD and spent the weekend before needing fuel Sunday before we left on the 6th.

 

I get 300-380 miles when pulling a trailer,and about 600 empty.

 

its stock, factory size tires, and 355 gears.....i dont usually have a heavy foot, i try and take it easy to conserve fuel....
