the 2litre CIH in the manta would return at best 28mpg and thats pretty aerodynamic... a 2.4 CIH in a oversized brick will struggle. Saying that the worst i had out of the manta was 11mpg lol :(

Lee

Yarp, im guessing a steady 10mpg lol

General, surely you just siphon the lorries that get parked around at work??? Or do you just let every other truck mechanic do that??


PS. I know it happens, there is a volvo dealer who got threatened with police action after 20 gallons miraculously 'evaporated'......

I noted earlier that Tesco have upped their limit on the card pumps, from £60 to £80. Might actually be able to give the Celica a full tank now!

Ash
06-06-08, 12:14 AM
Yea, I noticed that too. Ask for a PIN now tho which means I can't nick Mum/Dads/Sister card :( lol

Also supermarket fuel in the Toy-ka! Pah!

SUL, and thats only because they get it from BP and its a damned sight cheaper than White Post

Ash
06-06-08, 12:23 AM
Oh, it's the same as BP Ultimate? Worth knowing...

Jack

Actually I lie. I've always seen Shell supplying Tesco in Yobvil, its Sainsburys that are stocked up by BP.

Ash

Talking to the guy who setup my nov', Shell is the one to go for, he uses it in his 215bhp XE grasstrack car, so can't be bad
