Gas Milage

[chevboy]

Hey Guys, I was wondering how many kms or miles do you guys usaully get to a tank of gas i have a 1996 5 speed z24 with 220,000kms and recently started using my trip odometer everytime i fill up and notice that iam getting 735 kms to a tank and was amazed is this pretty good what do you guys think! this is mostly hiway driving

Welll, off hand I know I can pretty much use a tank a week on average. I'll also use the trip odometer and get back to ya

[JStumpalump150]

well....depending on how aggressive i am driving i can get about 300 miles on 3/4th's of a tank, i dont know how much i can get on a whole tank cuz i never let it get that low

With my '99 z24 5-spd with 200K miles on it I would get about 350-360 miles to the tank if I dont drive it hard. <---thats city driving. now with highway driving I was probably getting close to 400 miles to the tank.

[JStumpalump150]

oh, i should prolly state that i drive a '98 z-24 with 95,000 miles on it

I have a 1997 Z24 with 142,000kms so (88,000miles) not too sure about the gas millage i haven't had the car long enough lol but it seems to take forever for the needle to move when i totally fill up the tank it goes past the full line n has stayed ther for the past few days now n i have been driving hard to see if its broken or something but its finally below the full line now

[JStumpalump150]

yeah, it stays on the F for a really long time

Thats some impressive numbers. On the highway I do ok. But in town lately I've been getting not even close to 250. Sucks just watching the needle drop on my '03.

Before i started playing with my car I was getting 31 mpg. I was being able to pull off around 300 miles per tank. Reacently with a vac leak i was getting maybe 20mpg.. and now I won't be able to tell since my car is going into storage this week till next year.
