Thread: How many kms on a full tank ?

Driving my 2002 Td5 that I bought last Friday from Perth to Kalgoorlie, at Southern Cross 32 litres for 360k full to the cap both fillups.

I'm getting about 650km to a tank filled to the brim. I know I have a leaking exhaust manifold so here's hoping fixing that improves my fuel economy.
Recently filled up 94Ls

Currently chipped, bullbar, full length roof rack and running 265s. EGR still attached too.

Just found out I got 837 from a full to the brim tank, I know there was at least 102 litres in there, ran out in my gateway. Lucky it's all down hill from there.
Mainly hills driving, some windy back roads some freeway.

I get 12.5 litres per 100kms. (approx. 750km and 94lts) With a roof rack, roof top tent, snorkel, centre muffler removed and a remap. - Factory size tires.

Fully loaded with camping equipment on 265/75 R15 's. 14lt/100kms.

I should also mention my engine was rebuilt approx. 40kms ago with 0.20 thou over size pistons. D2a TD5 AUTO.

Did a run to Unanderra yesterday to drop the Kamper in for its 1st service.

286km there, towing kamper (completely empty with tanks drained) driving like a man on a mission to get there before midday ... F3 at 105-110, across Sydney avoiding toll roads, then south ... 14.73L/100km (calculated range 645km)

288km return home (not towing), same route for return, but a lot more traffic & start stop across sydney, then sitting at 90 on the speedo (95kmhr actual by GPS/Nanocom) back up the F3 ... 10.78L/100km (calculated range 881km)

Gotta be pretty happy with that !

Edit - A/C on both ways for full trip
