Stefan, On my '70 which is my mostly-stock 96, I get about 23 town 28 highway. When my '71 had the Weber progressive two barrel, it would get even BETTER...
... . . ... I could probably believe them. When I was driving my '69 96 from Pennsylvania to Camp Lejeune, North Carolina , I was getting about 29-30 mpg with...

Bog standard V4 95 circa 1974. All that's different is the throttle link is the (in)famous Noonan rose joint :-) Neil....
The previous owner of my '69 Sonett claims (and has the odometer readings documented to prove) achieving 55+ mpg by scrutinous use of the freewheel. That...
... Unfortunately, it's been a few years since I've run a V-4. I kept track of mileage and gas purchases in my '67 V-4 from the time I first bought it in May ...
... One of the scarier parts of my trip across I-40 in the Great Smokies in the middle of the night, was having a truck pushing me down the hill at over 80mph,...
... I'm reeeeeally skeptical about that. But I do agree that you can increase the gas mileage by coasting down hills. (The freewheel makes it easier, but you...
I didn't know the conversion off the top of my head, and I didn't have a reference book handy so I went top the internet to get my conversion factor... ...

There's always that "downhill-both-ways" trip to consider but... While I haven't compiled the replies to get an average it certainly seems that: 1. a decent...

I'm tired of converting measuremnts... my brain hurts. I DO know how good we've got it. It makes me ill to hear some of our politicians saying it is time to...
... So am I. The best I do is 12 km/l = 28.5 MPG highway or 10 km/l (23.7 MPG) city. On LPG only 8 km/l (19 MPG) (cars with two stage Solex carb and using...
Is it not the case in The States(as in Britain) that most of the price of fuel is tax? We had fuel tax protestors a while back that were stopping tanker trucks...
