Hey guys,
Recently Joined the cruiser club and bought a 2005 79 series turbo diesel ute. Picked it up with 218xxx on the clock.
Drives great and no dramas driving around town! Alternator ceased up after about a month and needed replacing but other then that it has been great.
I drive 135km a day for work on country roads and I seem to chew way more fuel then I expected and my rev gauge sits at about 4200 cruising at 110kph. I'm getting roughly 530km from each 90L tank.
Is that a normal fuel consumption and my rev gauge is playing up or am I chewing through way to much fuel?
I have checked my speedo with hema maps and it's pretty good.
Has anyone had this issue before?
Any advice would be great thanks
