Recently I made a claim that I had achieved about 67 MPIG on my 1991, 1.6 TD
Jetta after installing a low restrictiion dual exhaust system. I seem to
have made a measurement error. I took the car for it's first long drive
yesterday to go fetch a major generator component for my wind turbine
project. I logged exactly 400 kilometers starting with a full tank of
fuel. I filled it back up after travelling 400 highway kilometers at an
average 80-100 km/h speed. It took exactly 20 litres to refill making my
usage 5 litres/100 km. That works out to about 57 MPIG. It seems that I
still have work to do to achieve my goal of breaking 60 MPIG.
