What economy do you get out of your 202?

yeh from wot ive heard black have the best economy, i have a black carby 202 manual and i get around 450 k's in the city, if i take it easy i get over 500 no probs

im also interested 2 know wot difference people get between the carby and the efi versions

i got 250 if i was lucky in my old vk (efi 202, pod, 2 1/2 exhaust and the stock extractors) was fair **** thats y i got a vl looks better, better fuel economy and more power hehe

i went from maclean to newcastle (520km) off a full tank but i drive a VH 173.
I was wondering if that is good or bad.

i'd be lucky to get around 270k with my efi 202, stock motor. was shite.

that seems alright, is that mainly country driving or city as well? if thats some city included that seems quite reasonable anyway, or even if its driving through heaps of hills but for straight highway driving it seems a little much

was driving 2day almost empty and just realised i'd done almost 480 k's and i havent taken this tank slowly either, i didnt have enough money 2 fill it so i dont no exactly how many L's it used, but all city driving and putting foot down a fair bit on the tank i think that seems alright?

520k pertank is pretty dam good mate :thumbsup:

250k with efi, now that's poor.. ...... i guess your speed wasn't 100 ?

 

[jake87]

cool. when i was there i fitted a cruise controll settup (pretty easy) and used probably 5-10 litres less @ 100kms

 

[VKStevo]

how much is cruise control? might be another upgrade soon

I used to get anywhere from 350 - 750km to a 83L tank of 98 octane ULP when my car had the hot 202 in it.driving it flat out it would scull the fuel down, on a trip of highway driving I would do around 750 to a tank.
