Bloody sensor is broke on my SV and the fuel light is permanently on, so I keep track of it here http://www.spritmonitor.de/en/detail/492407.html Looks like 48mpg overall. This will change though (hopefully improve?) as I had some running problems recently.

The best I ever got with my K5 and Fuel exhaust with the baffle in place,was 56mpg but that was under the most stressful conditions,lots of willpower etc!
Normally driving at between 100 and 120kph,I return low 50's. Is the twin-plugged version much better? |
