high fuel consumption b16b

[Streethondas]

Well my b16b does 350km off a tank with some vtec driving in city.. You should get 400 atleast on the motorway remember vtec eats alot of gas

220miles = 354km

Sounds about right that 200-250 miles to a full tank.

 

[y3Lo]

about 240 miles for me everytime

 

[TheBooosh...!]

depends what fuel you are using too i suppose, sounds about right to me too like the two above said 200-250 miles per tank, if your using vpower like you should then obviously it costs more but is what the engine should have! on autodata even the uk dc2's shouldnt use anything less than 98' ron

The reality is the heavier your foot the more fuel you use The fuel prices are getting ridiculous atm. I have been known to get 270 miles from a tank, its boring as hell though lol

ive had 285 out of a tank on a loooooong motorway run, sat close to vtec the whole way, so if your driving around town mostly then id say that about right. Around town £20 gets me 85 miles (n

I got 330 once on V Power and driving like a granny but normal driving would usually be around the 250 mark. Remember if your doing above 70 fuel economy is not good. When driving conservatively I don't rev above 3.5k and keep it just a tad under 70mph on motorways.

check your thermostat is functioning correctly, if your coolant is colder than it should be then the ecu will richen up teh mixture,,
