I'm getting 14l per 100km on my 2.1 Syncro 15"

>>> David Marshall <vanagon@VOLKSWAGEN.ORG> 02/26/00 06:56AM >>> I personally get 13L per 100km with an average speed of 100km/h this is running CIS with a knock sensing ignition from an 86 Jetta GLI set to +12BTDC, CO is 1.5% Other people who run CIS-E (Electronic version of my CIS) get 11L per 100km and one of my customers with OBD-1 Montronic gets between 10 and 12L per 100km

10L / 100km = 24mpg (OK, not quite 25mpg) 11L/ 100km = 22mpg 12L/ 100km = 20mpg 13L/ 100km = 18.5 mpg
