fuel figure QLD trip

[dsm2750]

Happy new to all .. I just had a quick trip to QLD for the new year to spend with the inlaws .. coast road on the way up 14.1 L/100 on the way back turned right a coffs and went through Armadale and along the New England back to sydney and that was 16.2 L/100 not to bad I thought for a 4.5 with 2 adults 3 kids and all the stuff that goes with it :-) ..

Happy New to you as well, that's pretty good fuel consumption there from what I have heard about the 4.5's.

I am sure I did it the right way Lt divided Ks x 100 .. I put fuel in at beresfield full tanks , then fueled up at Reedy Cr on the way back put in 105 Lt and had done 742 ks X 100 = 14.1 if I am wrong please correct me ...

You are correct
I also have a 4.5 Litre Manual and use 18.5 Litres per Hundred K's on Gas.
I have never tested on Petrol but it should be less than Gas.
The Formula that i use is
Litres divided by (K's divided by 100) ie 105 divided by 7.42 which equals 14.15
