hey everybody, just thought I'd get your attention, hehehe. I'm new to the board (well, at least with respect to posting). I drive a 98 tour, 4 cylinder, 5 speed, light blue. Been drivin' it for 2 years now and love the car. Just thought I'd say hi and introduce myself.

later,
Sean

Welcome aboard. You should come out to the show and shine on Sunday. I'm curious since I'm the only other Zetec MTX combo to see your car in person. I'm also curious what your mileage is compared to mine.

Unfortunately I'm booked for the entire weekend, but there is always another time. My mileage is always over 700km per tank with my personal best getting 810km on one tank driving to kingston and back from Guelph.

700km per tank! Geez, I'm lucky to get 400km these days. Mind you I may have a bad EGR valve and a sticky IMRC, but such is life. I guess my only solice is that that my lil Duratec goes like stink on the highway.

But some more MPG would be nice!

So now here's the competition. What's your worst tank?
Mine....310km.

Welcome. Nice to see another 519 person on here

Drop by the Show & Shine this weekend, if you can. It's about 30 minutes from Guelph (assuming a nice cruising speed).

270km. I don't believe there was anything wrong with the car either.

Is that miles per gallon of gas, or miles per gallon of antifreeze....
