Hey guys.

I have a 1991 Sierra 1.3L. Just wondering hows many kms people get out of a tank, i was told they are very good on fuel. Mine is average about 300 to 350 per tank depending on off roading. Be interesting to see what everyone else gets?

Measure in L/100km as everyone has a different idea on how much "a tank" is, and if you haven't run out of fuel, you haven't used a full tank ;)

Fill up the car, hit the trip meter, drive around until its close to empty, fill it up again, note how many liters you put in, and how many km you have done. Then work out how many L/100km you get.

I consistently get 8-9L/100km in mine with 215/75/R15 tyres.

Don't forget to account for tyre size.

Thanks guys. I seem to get around 11 per 100km. So not great, but not awful, seems around the norm....

Thanks again.
