I think "just" not really follow closely on the FC topics and that's why got doubt on yr meter reading (which I did too b4). Fri13th and SoL are a few with FC > 18km/l (and constantly hit this records) :thumbsup: and also share quite a number of Great tips on FC. Thanks
SoL:
Hey LatioR, you're welcome! I wrote a simple guide somewhere before but now dunno lost till which page liao lol.
Hope you get better FC too! ;D

Ya, you are right, I just log in whenever I'm free, din read all the history posts.
To me they are very amazing to achieve double of what I or most of us hitting.
This also show how inefficent the FC of an engine - a lot(about half) of fuel is wastage due to our bad handling of the car.

Haha I wouldn't say bad handling, just that its a different style of driving. I used to get ~14km/l last time, and i would get very happy when I hit 15km/l. That was the days of aircon and 120km/h and 3k rpm.
Now I realised I'm doing fine even with 80km/h and 2k rpm, and sometimes even when I tried to drive more aggressively to see how low FC I would get, I'll always heart-pain. I guess its a habit already!
Well its one habit I'm not going to get rid off anytime soon! ;)

I realised Latio can get >17km/l but have to drive at certain pattern. If it is safe to drive a little faster, I will buy some time with that little amount of petrol. I got 16km/l+ before driving at 90~ 100km/h on highway once, and that's it.
FC is depend on 1) how keen you want to set record FC
2) how much you value the time taken over the petrol used.
I get single digit FC in SG but its ok, I am happy with what I have. My one tank last one month, what else can I ask for :smile: My FC will cross 10km/l if I have more green lights on the road.
