Tank 1: City driving with a few short expressway trips, a/c off. Tank 2: The same but with 2, 40 mile (70mph) non-stop highway trips, a/c off.
Car info: '97 v6 atx with 85k miles, new pre-cats, regular engine oil/filter & air filter changes only, the rest of engine/atx original(except wp of course ).
Wow, ATX sure makes a difference. I get 7 - 7.5 L/100km on highway, AND WOULD RARELY SEE 10L/100, and then only if i do heaps of (hard!) city driving.
