So as factory specs say I only get 25/31 but I've been paying attention and here's what I really get.35/43 this has been followed and wrote down every fill up for 3 weeks. I drove from Arkansas to Indiana and back then to Tennessee and back that's how I git the hwy mileage.

So what do yall get

I drive normal I don't know why it gets that much the only things Ive done to it is
Royal purple full synthetic race oil and filter, Bosch +4 plugs, k&n air filter and I ran a bottle of fuel cleaner though it.

I don't think Its normal for DAs to get gas mileage like mine. But I'm not complaining

I have a 1990 Torino Red DA9 with 480,000kms (2nd owner, well maintained, compression 180+). My teg must have had the gas tank replaced because when it reads 'empty' I always fill it up with about 37-39 litres; so I'm assuming it has a 40L instead of a 50L. I get 650kms highway and 525kms city, so that's about 16.25KPL Highway/13.125KPL City or 38.24MPG Highway/30.88 City. This B18A1 is more fuel efficient than my rebuilt D15B7:)

edit: Oh, and I always rev to 3k, never over 60% throttle. I normally do about 20kph over the limit but always 100kph on the highway.

In the sig. Great site for keeping track of miles. I was using an excel spreadsheet I made, but this is easier.
