fuel

just wondering what is the amount off miles to a full tank in a 1.0l i am sure i seen this on here a while back but cant find it.. i am wondering because it looks like i am only getting 200mile to a tank and thats me driving at the right speed limit and right gear.. i mainly do a 10 mile run that 50mph . many thanks

This happened to me in my '94 1.3 at about 65k, turned out it was lambda sensor even though car was still driving fine. Just about doubled my mpg on next tank full :cool:

No, don't be scared if it is lambda was only about 50 quid a few years back from memory. Obviously someone on here will know a way of checking if it is that. I am shocking (literally) when it comes to owt with wires sticking out of it :confused:
