I'm going on a limb here as I have no valid proof (haven't filled up yet), but I will say I used 3L/100km less this tank. 1996 2.5LT V6 Contour ATX My Tour+help/info pics E0 rims, Gutted Pre-Cats,CTA Custom Exhaust & Intake, Diablo Chip.

Driving the same last year got me 590KM. I might try the motorvac too. My wife regularly gets 450 - 500KM all city driving. Not bad for a 10 year old automatic Contour. 99 CSVT Green/Tan # 84 of 2760 Built on Wednesday, September 30, 1998 15.376 @ 92.00 MPH Stock 75,000Km 96 Contour GL 2.5L V6 ATX 170,000Km

Least I do anyway. It is a worthwhile investment on the car. It is part of my annual maintenance. 1998 BLK SVT CONTOUR #2980 of 6535 395,000(ish) km (and counting) SVTOA-TORONTO Chapter Director www.svtoa-toronto.ca

Most of you know with my rim/tire combo my spedo is off. The 2 tank avg was with my 14inch stock steelies (assuming spedo was correct with them). I've purchased a GPS, woohoo!, and have corrected my Odometer reading to my GPS reading for the last tank with 16 E0's on. If I don't use the correction and just go by my Odo reading Difference is -2.69/100km or +2.48mpg as you know, you can't rely on 1 tank for fuel mileage. So time will tell. I'm happy so far. Oh and just incase your wondering how bad my spedo is off. 1km = 1.08km or 8km for every 100km travelled. For those not liking the distance calculation 90kph is 97kph, almost 8% off and that miata tire size web page says I should only be 2.8% slow from stock. 1996 2.5LT V6 Contour ATX My Tour+help/info pics E0 rims, Gutted Pre-Cats,CTA Custom Exhaust & Intake, Diablo Chip.
