[ST] Fuel consumption (was Fuel Gage)



Rik,

In answer to your question about fuel comsumption:
On 23 april Richard Relph wrote: I think I may have a slight problem with fuel consumption on my '02 ST.

Last week I did some trips in traffic in and around town mainly 50km/h and 80km/h (so not being able to rev the engine a lot).
357,1 km (=221,9 m) 16,68 liter (=4,406 US gallon)  (4,67 l/ 100km)

While touring, including 200km on the highway, doing 160km/h, last weekend, I did manage 5,3 l / 100km.

As stated before the Fuel gauge stays on "full" for 146 to 176 km
When you read "half full" about 12 l are gone.
"Empty" comes up when there are still about 4l left.

I have a rather standard 2001 ST.

Cheers!
