How many MPT do you all get ?

I understand that the fuel tank is 20 gallons. I am wondering how many miles per tank you all get.
And when you fill up what is the average amount of fuel you have to put in ?

If I drive like a sane person I will put 300 miles on it before I have to fill up, which is usually between 16 and 17 gallons.

If I was lucky I would get 250 miles off a tank. That was with the T04S and 550 and 1300 injectors set to run 1 bar.

Usually around 210-230... Depends on if I can get a little more highway in the mix.

Actually, I seem to get around the same gas mileage whether I tear up the streets on not. I usually only get an extra 10-15 mpg by not getting on it..

miles per tank

240 with my 94 touring and 280 with my 93 base. During highway driving both get about 18 to 20 mpg.

I use to get about 230 *pushing* a tank of gas. That was with a leaky pulsation dampener. Fixed that and installed a Power FC. A setting was off and making the car compensate for 3.6 psi more constantly by adding more fuel. Fixed that and I have yet to drive for a whole tank... but I am hoping it will be close to 300.
