how much fuel does a starion use
Dude, there is something seriously wrong with your car! My car is currently running on 50-60% compression, uses more oil then fuel andl blows white smoke when I sit at lights and I get 13k/100km! As you read the rest of this post, I'm not alone in averages, with some even better then me on fully functioning engines!Starion_Turbo wrote:those figures sound completley wrong, I live with long 110km/h streches and have never experienced such low fuel usage.
I wouldn't expect figures that low from a 1.6L mivec engine in the same conditions.
Firstly i'd be cleaning your injectors! They could be completely clogged! Work from there!

i'm disagreeing with figures of 5.5L / 100kms, I drive 110km'h most of time and hard acceleration on corners, merging lanes, off of highway lights etc and get around 11 - 12L/ 100km's with some driving in traffic.
I believe 5.5L / 100km's is something only a BMW diesel holds the record for or possibly a suzuki cappacino.

my orange car runs consistently at 10.4 litres per 100 km, thats one thing the single point is good for anyway! and thats a mix of around town, highway, and squirting it occasionally.
