:shock: :shock: just filled up to today and reset the trip meter 718 miles on the last tank :shock: :shock: and that was mainly m/way miles so 80/90+ i think i will be leaving the cone filter on :D the only problem i seem to have is the throttle is a tad slow to pick up :?

Bet you can live with that though with that economy! :D
Even if you don't need it, grab it.
The minute you do need it, it'll be gone.

I think your speedo is way out, I can't see you doing that many miles on a tank!

neither could i but down to swansea and back, up to worksop and back and some local work all done on a tank :shock: and i always reset the tripmeter every time i fill up am going to see what this tank works out like :)

also i have definately got to try it on the blue hi cube as its a gas guzzler can only get 200 miles to a tank :shock:

would be interesting for someone to try it on a n/a :wink:

Didn't you say the other day you had the van up to something like 115mph, I would say it's your speedo out!

The best I've had from mine was just over 30mpg and that was cos I was trying really hard! :lol:
I'd do whatever it takes to get 48mpg :shock:
