Supra N_A Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 80 pounds filled my tank up on v power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I just filled mine from empty, the orange light had just come on and in my UK spec i got 71 litres into it £1.33 per litre for 95 so £94.43 to fill it to the brim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 i don't care about mpg. if i did i wouldn't be driving a Supra I care simply because its a good indication your engine and surrounding parts are working as they should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) My best was 32mpg before bpu Worst was £80 for 115 miles. I think that around 300miles to a tank is our average and what I base whether the car is running right. This is mostly sedate A-road driving.

TubbyTwo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I need to sort my O2 sensor, just returned 274 miles to the petrol light. Does need the plugs doing as well mind. Hopefully it should make a nice difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Best mileage I've had (a few times now) is 370 to a tank (with a bit more left) although this was all motorway driving, no boost and cruising at 70 max! Not as much fun though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy James Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I just went from Somerset to Milton Keynes and back yesterday on £60 with tt6. :o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littler Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I managed 350 out of a jspec tank when I went to the LMM meet in January. It was mainly using cruise control at 70 but there was a bit of boosting once I met up with other Supras lol. Didn't think there was much in the tank though once I got back home!

LOGIE Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 are any of yous driving with air-con on in this weather? that'll knock your MPG down a fair bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Aye!! Approx 28 mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I think Im going to do coil pack connectors, spark plugs, O2 sensor and ecu coolant temp sensor and see how that goes. Also been reading up on Terracleaning for the fuel system, although still not convinced it would make much difference on a car thats just run on Super? Not expecting stella MPGs but as Dunk has said would like to get the car running as best it can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan294 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Think the best I've had is 250 miles out of a J Spec Tank, BPU Auto. New O2 sensor and plugs. Never use air con though! Most of my journeys are short-ish, lot of start stop driving, combined mileage of about 12 miles a day. Think I will look at changing the ECU temp sensor; can't hurt!

Dnk Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Short stop start driving is never going to get you good mpg in a mkiv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan294 Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Short stop start driving is never going to get you good mpg in a mkiv I thought that. My Impreza was never that good on the work run, nor was my M5. Would you say that's about right then for shortish runs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Mine is pretty much 90 motorway, about 25 miles a day. Any small trips always use the other car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra N_A Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Well seeing what most of you guys get in fuel I am very happy with my mpg tbh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 might change the fuel filter as well while im at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy James Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Depending on where in Somerset and what you pay a litre thats pretty good and you must drive very sensibly Bridgwater, Somerset and think I paid £1.40 or something for vpower.. Don't really pay attention to fuel prices these days. And mostly a roads on boost so not that sensible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 My NA drinks just as much as my TT (well, ever so slightly better), I don't get that!! Then again saying that, I managed to go from London to Rotterdam, hoon around on Saturday and come back on Sunday (including a mad dash) and use just over 1.5 tanks of fuel! I managed 352 miles (did a thread about it), in a tank on my TT from a weekend break in France! That including a few runs with some motorbikes!
