How many K's can u get on a full tank of petrol?

[IDV8]

Honda Integra 2003 DC5 with premium unleaded @ Caltex/Woolies will get me 420KM if the tank is full (same with Shell V-Power) - light comes on around 400-405 KM I think, read somewhere once the light comes on you have ~20KM to go till you run out, not sure how true that is though.

I get just a bit over 350 per tank, and I have a DC2.. :/

I tried resetting my ECU as suggested somewhere and am currently using that tank but it looks like i'm heading the same way. I'm using the 95 stuff at Shell.

Shell petrol, that's your problem

[IDV8]

V-Power is Shell petrol .. gets me the same distance as non Shell U95

[dc2r-0636]

Vpower in my car uses 1-1.5 Litres per 100 more then BP ultimate

Shell petrol, that's your problem

I thought Shell was good? What should I use then, BP?

[dc2r-0636]

In my experience it wasn't, giv bp ultimate a go

BP Ultimate I assume?

1995 DC2 Vtir 98 vpower

Stock with custom intake and axle back i got
450-470km a full tank

Full 2.5inch exhaust, high flow (100cell), intake
400-410km

38-40 tires psi

yeah, that's a big factor, the tire pressures.

not many ppl realise this, if you're running 15" then keep it 32-34psi ish

but if you got 16's or above, 36 - 38 wouldn't hurt and will help fuel consumption greatly.

Everyone should get @ least above 400km's before the light comes on, even if you vtec a lot of the time.

You know petrol prices MUST be getting high when supposed car enthusiasts talk about petrol economy in their omg race cars...

[ExpressCoffee]

Well it has been a while since I checked tyre pressure.. Maybe I will try that as well as using BP for a change.

I'm running on 17" wheels so I'll make sure they're 38-40psi.
