James 03-10-2005, 04:03 PM 238.6 miles since the last fill. Took 53.95 litres at 40.9p / litre ... and cost me 22 quid Actual consumption of 20.11mpg, 'notional' (adjusted for the price differential) consumption of 40.75mpg I love LPG potto 03-10-2005, 05:47 PM May I share your "smug mode"? Gonna fill mine up tomorrow before going home and it's finally after 4K miles starting to get decent mpg from this new engine (though I have nursed it a bit this week) So far done 425 mixed town, A road, M1 & M25 miles since Tuesday night, have 1/4 tank left & SID average mpg of 37.6mpg. I love my diesel despite it's hiccups http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif ylee coyote 03-10-2005, 06:05 PM just driven to aylesbury and back 860 miles 1/4 tank left (of the second one ) computer is indicating 66.7 mpg....(about 34 really ) none of that filty diesel or that lpg nonsense 400 hp and 34 mpg ...must be a reckord somewhere... potto 03-10-2005, 06:14 PM And the award for the smuggest grin goes to...Ylee http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif Bet you didn't use many of those 400 horses while getting 34 mpg though Mine did get a flat out run through 10 miles of wiggly lanes on this tank... Bussman 03-10-2005, 11:13 PM I drove 90 miles the other week on 1/2 tank of petrol http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif thats T8 power http://www.saabscene.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif Paul TheFox 03-11-2005, 12:38 PM James, what car+engine are you running LPG with ? James 03-11-2005, 03:53 PM It's a 1993 900SE, Mark - more here (http://www.saabscene.co.uk/ubb/ultimatebb.php?/topic/3/1269.html). Non-turbo, I'm afraid, but I didn't really buy it for speed ... I have to say, the LPG conversion seems to work very well. The only difference running on 'gas' is a slightly uneven idle, and that's only noticeable if you know to look for it. Cheers James | |
