Depends on on your leg, and road condition. If more uphill, consumes more fuel. If you willing to stop your car in the middle of the road with empty tank biggrin.gif I cannot, once fuel indicator on, I feel nervous already.

My car's light never on before..so I don't know..don't know it will light up or not..that's why I want to try biggrin.gif

Can't expect much from auto bro~~its like that
Tambah pickup, tukar ekzos system untuk lebih free flow, letak high flow drop in air filter dan install lighten crank pulley

Tentu dapat feel lebih ringan. Untuk engine oil, try 5w-30 biggrin.gif
*
5w-30? really can feel the difference? drool.gif
Normally what brand recommend? how much? hmm.gif

When you say reach E, is it above/at/below the lowest bar (out of 5 bars) ?

highest = full
3/4
1/2
1/4
lowest = near empty

My light will only comes out when below empty. From empty, I can still drive another ~50km, then only pumps in 40L. If extend till 80km, then can pump in 43-45L, but quite dangerous already  sweat.gif  If go uphill stretch, sure *habis*

So, I assume your bar just reached empty (not yet lights on), hence 32L is about correct.

Don't try if you don't want to run out of fuel  tongue.gif 

Today my car needle is just above Empty @430km already. Not yet lights on. I guess can go another 60-80km before refill 40L.

Note: There are some people with argument running below 1/4 tank is bad for engine, etc. But I have been doing this complete empty tank and refill 40L for the past 8 years with this car whenever possible in KL (except when I go outstation long distance, I keep at least more than 1/4 tank).
*
Yeah..the light still havent on yet..

QUOTE(Rascal Stitch @ Aug 24 2010, 12:44 PM)
mayb da package u choose it's cheap so then they give cheaper oil then~

u still can run another 100km b4 fueling it~

Really? will try this time nod.gif



Besides that, anyone know where I can get the thing that put at the upper part of hand brake? to put my left hand on it..dont know what it call wink.gif

arm rest box, you can get it at any accesory shop, but they'll have to screw some screws into the plastic compartment that is between your seats

Yea, don't want to be the cause of traffic jammed, especially in LDP blush.gif

Wira is an old car, but as long you know how to take care of it, replace the wear and tear parts, should be no problem. If want more power, there's always half cut brows.gif

For new national cars, I doubt can even last 10 years or so. Not as tough as the previous ones that is from Mitsu, IMO biggrin.gif

I take care of it..but I don't know what problem to the car..suddenly engine will "mati" when I stop for traffic light and jam.. doh.gif
