Fuel Tank Capacity

Uh, for MPG(l), just fill it, drive it, fill it and check the pump. Beats having to run it to empty.

That's horrible. What carb are you using?

You definately have a problem there, even my Navigator does better than ...

Any suggestions on tuning would be appreciated!

I JUST got my 73 super that has a '70 1600cc stock with a 31pict carb....what kind of milage can I expect from it?

Ya think we are psychic or something? Drive it and you tell us! Okay, okay, between 8mpg and 35mpg. Guaranteed.

Psychic ? Or did you mean Psycho ?

My 67 with a 1500 gets about 35 on on the highway, 28 in town.

What can I do to improve the mpg? I have tweaked the mixture and idle but is there anything else?

Something is very, very wrong. You might step over the

and ask in the Drag and Speed section. Yourproblems could be anything from deckheight to jetting, an open manifold..or all of the above. I have a pro-built 2165 that gets as much as 40mpgat 65mph. It can be done.

ok ok so i found the problem very very simple problem at that. The speedo wasnt reading the milage correctely, to every true mile the speedo only recorded 0.3 of a mile which meant I actaully done 333 miles instead of my recorded 100! As you can guess the MPG improved greatly to 41MPG time to find a new head I have messed about with the old one but cant find a way to solve the problem. I think the cog that runs off the worm gear is just slipping on the milage counter shaft!
