Oil supply/drain are the same but air piping might need small modifications.


    Thanks Dougal, can you let me know progress on this/ when it happens?

    Just added up my fuel usage from our recent Cape York trip.
    Melbourne-Cairns-Cooktown-Lakefield-OTL-Tip-Mareeba-Cairns.
    Coen was the last time I filled the tank completely on the way back as the County is being freighted back to Melbourne from Cairns.

    Figures for Melbourne to Coen were 6059km, and 786L, which works out at about 13L/100km.

    Vehicle is a 1985 County, 4bd1 with turbo, no I/C, LT95 with .996 transfer and 255/85-16 BFG KM2's, rooftop tent, and the 2 of us in the car.

    Driving was a mix of blacktop at 95-105km/h, gravel 80-90 at best (often slower), and plenty of low range.
