I have a EL Gli with Dual fuel. LPG gets me about 350 - 400km's to 68 Litres which is a combo of city and highway. I have 640K on the clock.
Car does need a new ECU and a tune up though. |

| i get 420km out of a 68L tank, mixed highway and local, whats weird though every now and then i get 340-360MAX when that happens i reset the avg l/100km on the trip computer, next fill i get 420 again, its so weird though cause that shouldnt have anything to do with it, but its done that about 3 times, could it be just a co incidence i dont know but it works so i do it... |

19-20L/100km - city/heavy load/stop start/booting it
14-15L/100km - metro/some stop-start/nothing over 80km/h
11-12L/100km - highway/freeway use |

i usually get about 350ish k's from 65l of gas of a 1989 ea s pack. me old man drives a 1996 ef and he gets bout the same but as soon as his car hits the highway it jus smells fuel. i remember last time we took it to sydney we got 538 k's of 65l of gas.
i hope that helped.
