Title: Trip Away
Post by: Doggie 1 on March 31, 2015, 09:40:40

I've just been down to Albany for a couple of days with work.
On the way back I refuelled at Dwellingup and on the way over to Pinjarra was recording these sorts of figures.
By the time i got home, it was showing 3.2 l/100 kms.
Not bad, eh?   :mrgreen:
Jean is running better now than ever.

I sat on 95-100 km/h but it's pretty flat.
I was following a couple of other cars that were doing that speed.

I don't know how many kms these engines are good for, but this one just started to feel run in at @ 100,000 kms and is running beautifully now.
This car has only ever done long distance driving which has probably helped it.
I'm hoping that Mr Hyundai knows how to build small crdi engines that last.   :Good_luck:
I'll just keep it fed with Shell Helix Ultra.   :)
