When I first got my '84 westy it was in the 18, I think even 19 once.
Mostly though it gets a lousy 17 too.  It recently was getting 15mpg.
"Yikes", I thought  something was wrong with it, .....er....something NEW
was wrong with it.  I discovered the tires a few days back were low.
Hopefully that will fix it.


I couple days back someone had a thread on a variable fuel pressure system
resulting in 22 mpg or so.  WHOEVER Knows about that, let me know, let us
all know!!  The main reason why I contemplate a Tiico conversion is gas
mileage.

i've been trying to keep track of the mileage on my 87 vanagon - and it
seems to be around 17mpg.  what's the average most people get off the
highway?
