This insert is from the Mitsubishi FTO Technical Information Manual
Is that from the 1998 model manual? Maybe they made the tank bigger from the late 97 model up?

That's 14L/100km bennoz, so not too bad for what you're running under the bonnet.

I love having a diesel. Averaging 9L/100km at 105km/h. 2.5L 4cyl pushing 2T of lifted, aerodynamic-as-a-brick truck through the air.

We've used two thirds of a tank, and about ~500Kms driven, does that seem right for a stock GPX?

So true! There is only one tank!!! Why do people always think they have something special? Its either you are filling past the first click or ya got ripped off.

I know from my car juddering from a lack of fuel to the first click was 56-58 litres I cannot remember.
