nmwisima's '96 Miata
Ok, I have a small problem:

I meassured consumption and it was really huge!!

Just to remind you, 1996 1.600cc Stock Miata, just 900 kg's.

First meassurement: 16,3 litres per 100 km

Second m: 15,1 litres per 100 km

Thats really too much so I began to think there is a problem...

I though that if the engine burned 16,3 litres it could never pass MOT so I went to a specialty store. Everything was found fine Huh
All meassurements are normal...

Then I took one more today at 13,4 litres per 100 km.

Dont know whats going on. Any ideas??

heavy right-foot??..just kidding offcourse. What did the specialty store check? My moms car has a similar problem these days..it gets much worse fuel consumption than it did before and the garage finds nothing wrong with it.

Well Ivan,

I put that long thing in the exhaust and checked carbon oxides and other similar thing (dont know the exact words)

Most of the comsumptions I meassured were in Town with Open Roof.

Still the first 2 meassures are too much.

The last one is a bit normal, 13,4 and it was again with open roof and in town but @ much bigger and faster roads...

Yes I have a heavy right foot Big Grin
Once I achieved an unbelievable 15,8 l/100 km with a 998cc Cuore Tongue

What I m gonna do is keed driving and take some more meassurments to see how it goes...

Uhm, what gear do you drive in through town? I have this pimped-up-Sierra near my home which always drives in first through the neighborhood. I can imaging him having such fuel consumptions. Big Grin
What was your consumption with the GZE then? Worse? Huh

Mine used to drink heavily as well. On highways its no problem, but they are horrible around town..I would be lucky to get 1:10 on average.....Good thing is though, they are so rich that you can slap a turbo on there with no trouble. 6psi on stock fueling i believe.

1:10 is 10 litres/100km
