Bourkey Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Blimey i get that out of my full tank. What you driving like you bulb . Bourkey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 i kinda know whats going on mate.....i need to chill out n change up gears faster instead of hitting 60 in 3rd or 4th....again be in 5th when doing 40 not 4th stuff like that i need to monitor it. 90% of the time i wait till its warm before i drive off so it cant be that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I usually keep it below 2.5 k when changing when sat at 60 in 5th its like 2750 revs. I once got nearly 200 miles off half a tank driving like that then got bored!!Its a known fact FTE's are better on fuel, probably because they dont need as much of a revving for hills etc, who knows Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 i usually change at that (2-2.5) on normal driving, just when i hit the motorway i keep it longer in gears.....i shall change my ways Quote Link to post Share on other sites
