Title: Gas How Man Miles Can You Go
Post by: 1969deluxebus on May 24, 2005, 12:32:23 AM

i was just doing a little test with the bus the bus the past few weeks i would see how many miles i could go before i had to fill up . Well I drove until i felt like i would run out of gas in the next mile or so.
So my results are  around 216miles, i filled up  and it took 46 litres and i think the 69 bus has a 51 litre tank?
So has anyone tryed this and am i getting good fuel economy for a stock 1600 single port.

????????????

thanks matt

Hey Matt,

If you base it on 46 litres

7.55 kM/litre
17.77 mpg

Thats probably not bad in a bus.
