Current mpg was created by mcjimny
Whats everyone getting? Just worked mine out following a mention of mpg in another thread so wondered what we're getting on what spec and fuel etc . Maybe useful like honestjohns real world mpg stats. I don't normally think about it but i'm doing more miles now so watching the guage a bit :pinch: hoping i don't need to go back to stock wheels.
I got 20.96mpg
195/15 remoulds(27"ish?!)
170 miles to just above the red
Total regular unleaded
2002 Jimny so DOHC.

6.5l/100 k's, doesn't seem to matter if it is city k's or country k's. Very consistent

I get around 24mpg on 205/75/15 colways (aggressive competition tread) with safari roof rack (which makes a big difference), However the garage who have just replaced my clutch said that I need to run injector cleaner through it as it was running slightly rich. I have put the injector cleaner in and BP ultimate unleaded so will see tonight when I drive home 50miles after work.

I'll let you know whether the injector cleaner has made any difference to the mpg.

With all the mods, it's exactly 30 miles per gallon during summer and 25-26 mpg during winter.

FYI, Google knows: www.google.com/search?q=8+liters+per+100+kilometers+in+mpg :laugh:
