Towards the end of its life the pinto was known for drinking a LOT of fuel , its not really an engine suitable to run on gas either as you will be needing new valve seats shortly !!! The Mk 5 with the twink 2.0 dohc engine will do 10kms a litre if driven normally but not a lot you are able to do to get better range unfortunatly
