The fuel gauge doesnt work on my '73 1600cc Westy so I am just topping up regularly at the moment until the new fuel sender unit arrives end of august. Can I ask roughly what sort of mileage do people get from a full tank based on a 1600cc engine. Petrol, manual. At least then I can set my mileage each time i fill up and just refuel after say 150 miles or such each time.
on a flat or up hill and down hill.. cant remember how much my tank holds as i usually fill it per 24mpg i am going...and a gallon extra. maybe.
The tank holds 13 Gallons (I think). I always carry a spare gallon can of fuel in case of miscalculation
The fuel tank holds either 50 or 55 litres depending on how late your late bay is. Filling up at 200 mile intervals has only let me down once in the thick of winter & the van had just been pottering about on choke for about 3 weeks, nipping to the shops & taking the dog to the park - 16mpg - never to be repeated!
