Compressor Fuel Comsumption

[Chris.S]

Ok the people with compressors, what mileage are you getting out of a full tank of fuel. I did a large run at the weekend and i thought id see what happened

I've managed 303.5 miles when the light came on. id say ive got another 20-30 miles left

I'd like to hear wether you've got better mileage or worse, 90% of my journey was motorway at 70mph by the way

around 420km (261miles) then the light came on..

When you buy Compressor you sould not think about fuel comsumption!

*edit*

thats was in "town driving" I will see what I can do on highway, im going to drive to Portugal on friday :P

I get around 240 - 250 but usually fill up just before the light comes on. This is with short journeys and I don't spare the horses :P

Never had more than 280 tho, so 300 is good.

I managed 320-ish but can't remember exactly

That was continuous motorway driving.

I don't usually let it get too low in case I can't find super unleaded so I don't usually take much notice of the consumption

[Chris.S]

Only 2 places in Stoke to fill up

1. Shell

2. Tesco

Both well over a pound a litre, it it gets any dearer its having 97 in it and sod it lol

[chrisio]

The price of super is getting stupid now

I sometimes wonder if putting ordinary unleaded with a can of octane booster would work out cheaper :censor:

[Chris.S]

if it gets any sillier il jus put straight 97 in it

ps - i'm now reading 316 miles and its still not showing fully empty, il have to fill up tonight for def. Its going to be over 320 at least which i think isnt bad

When i had it i got same as you, i just hit 300 on a motorway trip from midlands to london and back and the light came on about 15miles from home and i had to refill at M6 junction 10 or 11 :P as i dont like running on low fuel.

regular unleaded and 10ml of benzene will sort you out! 100+ octane here we come.
