Nice one Isaac, will be interested as to how the 2.4 does on fuel


I'm thinking about a 2.4 LPG outlander

[I-S]

The outlander is the 4G69 MIVEC, rather than the 4G64 GDI. I'll let you know on fuel.

[I-S]

Ok, first point of fuel data...

I filled it up to the top 2 miles after I bought it. I then drove home, did some puttering to and from town a couple of times, changed oil, drove to and from work, drove most of the way to work and filled up again this morning because I'm off down south this evening.

187 miles from last fill, and I squeezed in 20.85 litres - that's 40.6mpg.

[psbarham]

that's 40.6mpg.

right , you , go and sit in the corner of the forum and think about what you have said

[I-S]

160 miles this evening, and still above the 3/4 mark.

[psbarham]

160 miles this evening, and still above the 3/4 mark.

[pezza]

160 miles this evening, and still above the 3/4 mark.

I take it you are not hackin it around those W Yorks lanes? (In between those scameras)

Great colour, I must add.... Is the Elegance spec up to spec?

Any interior pix coming?

[Wodjno]

160 miles this evening, and still above the 3/4 mark.

Well done


But i've done that in my VR

[I-S]

How about 280 miles to the half mark?

[Gazzor]

How about 280 miles to the half mark?

280 miles to the light and I thought I was doing well , I managed 26 out of the last tank, must say that is an impressive figure though, I am going to have to sell mine as it is not economical enough , I have bought a Lancer gsr 1800 but will keep the VR-4 till the end of summer, it will be great for camping, can fit 2 kitchen sinks in that

Isaac,

I saw an old thread in which you had posted that a higher gear doesn't equal a higher MPG, coming to the conclusion that it was a bit of a myth. In the mitsi manual it states to stay in as high a gear as possible. So, who's right? I'm sure it said somewhere a recommended RPM, around 1750, although looking now I can't see. At 30mph in third my v6 does around 2250 RPM, but in a higher gear like fourth or fifth it drops to around 1000-1250RPM.

If you were riding a bike !

Would the highest gear always be the gear that makes you use the least energy ?
