Gas milage for 87 Mazda
I am going to be geting a Mazda soon and was woundering what kinda gas milage they were geting factory and what they should be getting now?
Thanks.
never really now honestly if someone drove the piss out of it and hardly changed the fuel filter/spark plugs/air cleaner it could get horrible gas mileage but usually somewere in the high 20's
check out this link, you can get the mpg for any vehicle back to '86...
with stock everything, my 92 b2200 got about 21city and 24-25 highway
dont know my mpg,but I can do about 425 KM to a full tank. I find if it's at a full tank,it takes about 75 miles (~120km) to use a 1/4 tank.
Not the greatest things on fuel. Small tank,so it's cheap to fill up,but I find I fill up more often. I had a Ford Contour with a 2.5L V6,manual and a 57L tank and I could go just over 600km to a full tank,and it would take me over 200km to use a quarter tank from full. That car was good on gas,and I had that car for a year,so I'm still adjusting to figure out my fuel economy on the truck. So far I'm not very impressed. I guess having a carb doesn't help matters much either. I would think an FI one would be more fuel efficient by a little bit.
Thanks guys, Where's good place to find performance stuff at.
My B2200 aint too great but got better with a new Accel coil, rejetted carb and a little head work. Gets 23-24 in town better on the road but I also have an automatic and air and cant expect too much. BJ
DEPENDS ON WHAT YOUR LOOKING FOR.....?
HERE'S A FEW LINKS TO GET YOU STARTED.
what about Fast Freddies? Mild cam and small head work.
ALSO this truck is bagged do you guys know if the gas tank hangs below the frame?
