My buggered fuel gauge was lying the other day. i ran out of fuel about 100 yards from home... I worked it out as just about 30mpg (200tdi defender 110) which sounds about right to me. Wondering what you all got and whether thats a good figure?

Im assuming its the sender thats gone wrong is it very hard to fix?

Cheers
Jack
 
I know My brother regularly get 30+MPG but he does have a fuel saver as I have (yet to be fitted) which helps alot. Would be surprised if your getting 30Mpg with a std 200Tdi with a loaded 110 tho
 
i get 33.8 mpg. 90 TD5 with de egr )which i dont think does anything anyway apart from not fire **** into the engine) Thats an average over 7000 miles. I use a little app on my phone to keep a record (a little sad i know!!)
 
It actually didnt run out completely before i filled it up so it might have even done more than 30mpg.. And my dad says im an un-economical driver! What does he know :p:p
 
I'd like to be able to turn off the extra fueling for the turbo but still not fitted the kit had it 3 years now. I don;t do enough miles to warrant checking but Last time we went out lets just say I was at the garage alot more than any others think my gearing needs sorting. Roll on new year I might even fit the trany box!
 
I'm getting between 28 and 34 from my 1993 200tdi 90. I'm quite happy with that to be honest :)
