High Fuel Consumption
Hi Guys,
What sought of mileage are you getting in your FC on a full tank of fuel, with normal street driving? I can barely hit the 200km mark? And the engine is stock with only a microtech, that's all. But my first gen rx7 with the full works(480bhp) gives me about 250+km mileage on a full tank. Their fuel tank size is almost the same. Is it because the FC is a whole lot heavier, thus giving it this disadvantage? Anyway, my FC is the cabriolet kind(FC3C). Pls advise.
Best Regards,
Francis

I'd recommend a full tune up:
Plugs
Wires
O2 Sensor
Fuel Filter
Get your fuel injectors professionally cleaned
This helped me get my 88 TII from almost getting 200km a tank to 350km+ a tank(50 liters on a 60liter tank). I have a streetport and lots of other goodies too...
