Celica's Fuel Economy, MPG and 100km/L Options

[vile_v]

Alright I hope this clears up any misconceptions on what our cars was getting. Some of the people on this board have gotten outrageous fuel economy, which in turn has discourage other members into believing how bad of a condition their car is in.

First off, fuel economy has many factors that effect it. Some of these factors are age, health, weight, how you drive, model (to some degree) So please take these things into consideration when reading this chart.

I hope this information has been of some used.

Its not my typical DIY but its pretty damn useful. aha

- my celica was getting 12.8L/100kms (I had a half a dime size hole in the front pipe) it was recently replaced with another used pipe. I am now getting 10.8L/100kms mixed of highway and city driving + lead foot aha LESSON TO LEARN: FIX YOUR EXHAUST LEAKS!!!

Just went to Flordia, from SC.

8 Hour drive.

443 mile trip. 12 gallon tank, perspectively 36 miles a gallon. Got to the hotel on fumes, but made it.

159k on engine, no major changes to engine. Big speaker enclosure in the hatch. Manual Trannie.

Went between 65-75mph whole way.

I know this is for real, being I charge my employer mileage, and get my gas receipts paid back.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the tank is 16 gallon. So you were getting 27-30 mpg which is typically what I get.

hmm i have never been able to put more than 13.5 gallons in mine, i guess it means i can drive on E alot longer then i thought

Same, from E, mine only takes 13.5....I never take it below a quarter expect for large trips like that.

Anyone confirm..?
