430km with 35L of RON95
100% hway driving... collected all speed trap whichever come 1st...

My Saga FLX latest FC 496.5kms for 33 litres. BHP Infiniti 2X Ron95 only!

Never ever bothered about Ron97 as it is all placebo effect only. Our cars designed for Ron91 and above.....

So

RON91 > RON97 ?

Which means unless your car is turbo charged etc, using 95 or 97 no difference, anything above Ron92 is wasting the energy only....

Kelisa 1.0 Auto 38 litres (Ron 95) about 450km and I am very heavy footed with 100% city driving.

Checkout my sig for updates

power? yes, i agree. but value for money? i dont think so. 97 is rm2.8 what.

Just to catch up with previous NOT WELCOMED posting in BLM thread regarding FC, now I've moved here to continue my journal in finding the optimal fuel efficiency of my SAGA BLM. Currently I'm doing 2krpm shift up + smooth acceleration. 80% town driving.

Anyway, the test got some hiccups now as my wife went and refill SOME petrol to my BLM, therefore the current reading is NOT accurate. I'll have to bring the car and refill full tank again during the weekend, so I can update the fuelly with correct amount of petrol being poured in VS actual amount of traveled distance.

As for the ISWARA.... I was waiting the fuel warning indicator to lite up, but it didn't. By the mark of my record 450km, I already started to worry I'm actually running way low of fuel, and mother of Mary I couldn't find my ESSO/MOBIL along the way. So, reluctantly I dragged all the way until reach the petrol station nearby my house. And below are the readings... I still think the fuel warning indicator is malfunctioned just right at this time!



RM0.14/km?!?!?!??! WTF?!?!?!?!?!

So, I guess from today onwards, I'll be a road hogger for very² long time in my ISWARA. I am already a road hogger in my BLM, so after this 2 tank of petrol, I'll have to decide whether continue to hog the road with 2krpm in the BLM or I will try higher RPM to achieve an optimal torque to avoid power loss that resulting high fuel consumption.

Cheers

That's about the same as mine but my clubmates can get like 14-17km/l on average. Must be some serious disciplined slow driving.

2 tank of petrol gone for my BLM. Below is the current reading with 2krpm shift up:

1st tank is running on 11.3km/litre (ESSO/MOBIL)
2nd tank is running on 10.1km/litre (SHELL)

Now, officially scrap the idea of 2krpm shift up. No torque, no speed, like crap. Am pushing it up to 3krpm from this tank of petrol onwards.

Cheers,

Dave
