coln72 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 5k with 5 speed carbie extractors and exhaust be lucky to get 11L/100km Mine was a similar combination but with 3kb carbies and high compression. Used to get around 400km from a tank. So appox. 10l/100km driven sensibly. Open it up for some fun and it could chew through a quarter of a tank in no time :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philbey Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 I use an app on my phone as my fuel gauge is crook Cammed twin 40 dellortos. Average fuel consumption 9.61, best is 8.74 and worst is 14.18 The economy comes from a properly tuned set of carbs, and also very high comp/good volumetric efficiency. Also, the driving I do closely represents the standard for combined driving, some open road high speed, not many lights or congested traffic.

The way you have it written you travel 11.5kms for every 100 littres of fuel used, obviously a typo. I was joking :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
