mpg moan

I just don't get it. I am bpu plain and simple, yet my 55litre (~16 gallon) tank gives me 250 miles or thereabouts (~17 mpg) which is pretty kak. The new o2 sensor installed a couple of months ago hasn't changed anything. Yet I hear of almost double mpg can be done with a bpu supra. Am I really that leaden footed (well, I can be) or is something wrong?

I use to get around 220 miles to a tank (80 litre UK spec) at BPU!

Hmmmmm maybe it`s because 55 litres is a fraction over 12 gallons and not 16 :p

Im getting about 19 mpg on my single turbo, or 230miles to £50 (51l) of motion lotion. but i do a lot of motorway'ing, its much heavier than that with the loud pedal fully depressed though ;)

 

I did 200 miles with 42ltr which is 21 mpg all motorway and thought that was good. (BPU)
