    My 4.5 returns 18L/100K's Cruising so you should get approx the same with your 4.2.
    My Car is tuned by a LPG Specialist as most normal Mechanics have a little trouble tuning for Gas

    yeah i just took it to an LPG specialist who tuned it up. he made it run smoother with better performance but couldnt improve the fuel economy...

    Just did a quick run, Bathurst to Maitland and back, around 700klm. Bathurst to Maitland averaged 9.3l/100, return trip was 11.2l/100. 2 people and little luggage on board. Pretty much just kept to speed limits up and down hills. Pretty pleased with the results.

    Roofy you need to fill up again to be able to work out consumption for the trip.
    I filled up on the way there and filled up on the way home. Used 20L/100km which I don't really think is that bad as most was low range and we were driving for a long time.


    If you're happy and you know it tap a post!

    Yes but that doesn't mean you used 42L on our trip. Where was the 400km from? I filled up in the Goon on the way in and on the way out and was about 300kms with some extra tracks this morning
