18 mpg Highway cruising :unsure:

Offroad... luckily my wheeling is close to home.

I get on average between 28-30 on every tank, and thats driving and rev'ing it flat out, sitting on motorways around 75-80, and thats still with 4 inch lift and 31" tyres

I had this problem a couple of years back - turned out it was my Lamba Sensor busted ... (on the exhaust manifold).

I nearly had a heart attacked when i got a quote from Suziki, lucky i got a OEM version.

I think (?) Martin sells them in the shop or knows a place to get them?

My clocks quite abit out as I'm on 32" tyres but I recon I get around 200 to tank but drive it pretty hard everywhere :evil:

Rich - he reckons he's only getting 50miles to a tank - i got it this bad that when my Lamda sensor broke!!

I'm running 32's on 3" lift, a SJ 6:1 Transfer Box and i get the same as Rich - around 200miles to a tank-full.

Yeahh! Can do 90 on the flat, and with wind and down hill me and Dad hit the big 100. And it feels completely safe as well, drove a standard 58 plate one the other week and it was terrible on the road, really bouncy on the country roads at speed, whereas ours is a pleasure to drive quick on the country roads, handles so well for a 4 inch lift
