Thanks Pibby :)
just had a play with reg's air flow meter, two outside terminals were reading 35 ohms, found the adjusting screw (mines plastic with a screwdriver slot as well as the allen head) have adjusted to 100 ohms as decsribed and will see what happens
Five km/litre is 14.1 mpg = 20 l/100km
5.5 km/l = 15.6mpg = 18 l/100km
6 km/l = 17 mpg = 16.6 l/100km
I'm getting averages of between 5 and 5.5 km/litre, better on a freeway on cruise-control, and I am VERY interested to see how the bottomless pit does when I convert it to 2 wheel drive...

We all have a go at how bad rover economy is. My 93 rangie with 265/75 16 muddies, sports exhaust and 'power/economy' chipped ECU could get 16-17 litres per 100km on highway, around 20 litres per 100km for urban driving. LPG and petrol about the same.
I now have a nissan patrol 4.2 efi petrol/lpg, exhaust, headers, gearing to suit bigger rubber. I'm happy if I get 20 litres per 100 on any run, mostly up above 25 litres per 100km for daily driving. It is not uncommon to get well above 30 litres per 100km with roof rack, loaded down with camping gear.
The rangie motor was nicer (until it died) to drive, had torque where you need it and sounded heaps cooler, plus added stability of constant 4x4.
Anyway, I never noticed how 'terrible' rangie economy was, considering the age of the car. Much better than patrol, not much worse than 4.5 petrol cruiser of same age. 16-18 litres per 100km (or better as some have stated) is really quite good for a 2t constant 4x4 petrol V8.

I've got a 94 LSE soft dash Rangie running on 205 x 16 all terrain tyres. My average fuel consumption on 95 Octane is 14.2 litres per hundred kays at 90/100 km an hour on the twisty and hilly bitumen roads of north east Victoria. Around town and on short runs sees it climb variably to 20 to 22 litres per 100 kays. On the freeways to Melbourne it is between 12 and 13 litres per 100 km and that is at 110 kmh. I keep a detailed log book of everything including the details of each time I get fuel.
I find that the phrase 'Fuel Consumption' is better suited to my Range Rovers than 'Fuel Economy'.
