Fuel Economy?

Hello all

How many miles do you all get to a tank of fuel, on the Gen 6.

I'm lucky to get 300 miles, even on a long run, mostly off boost.

Is this normal?

Depends on how you drive, best i've managed was 440 to the tank on a long motorway journey constant 70 all the way. Worst was about 150 when I got in a mood with work and took the car out for a good hiding. :D

Just imagine what she'd be like with a Four........

[kirst_ie]

I think there is something wrong with her anyway :( ive never had anymore then 250miles from a full tank and thats when petrol is 87.9 cheapest its been for ages.

I wanted a four but at the time of searching for a Celi my the insurance was way to much

So settled for a GT

Could be, anyone know what size the fuel tank is on the GT? It supposedly 68 litres on my GT4 but never ran it dry so max every filled up to was 62 litres which cost about £60. Normal fill up for about 300-350 miles granny driving used to be about 50-55 quid.

Tank on the GT is 60 litres (13.2 Gallons)

Tank on the GT4 is 68 litres (15 Gallons)

cheers Booster, i was thinking that myself, is it easy to do? ie can i do it myself and where is it located, is it easy to get too? oh and theres loads of different ones that you can get like 1 wire ones, 2 wire ones and so on? which should i get?

Thanks,

[GT4 BOOSTER]

which celica have you got ??

[Black1]

i have a 1994 GT, is it 3SGE engine i think. now i'm even more confused cos i went on the website you said and they got some weird description, for a 4wd GT with a 3SGTE engine, i always thought that was the GT4.

Thanks
