[carracarra13]

this has possibly been asked b4 but please humer me just got a tdi200 disco and was wondering what milage I should expect  out of say £30 fuel at todays prices

[william127]

ive got that engine in my 127, which has an unladen weight of 21/4 tonnes, including the offroad kit, its on remold mud tyres and has a wide tipper body and it does 25mpg :) around town and on a trip to scotland carrying about 1/2 a ton did 29mpg :D at 60mph on the way up, but coming home i did 75 and got about 24mpg.
 the only "perfomaqnce" mod is a set of hiclones.

Do your hyclones work?

[william127]

i think so, fitted one on its own to start with as ran out of time, drove down the road to a tricky junction pulled out and could feel the extra pull. had the second one fitted at the same time as a big service  so dont no how much difrence fitting the 2nd one made as everything was working better, a mate has them fitted  to a 300tdi 90 along with a k and n filter and having the pair of them certainly improves perfomace

[squaddie_fox]

so do you have your swirly bits before the turbo? or before the intercooler? or before the inlet manifold?

[peasey]

OH god i know which way this is heading,im not watching anymore.

[william127]

to be honest i cant remember, got them from devon 4x4 at the lrw show, fitted as pr the instructions, might still have the bit of paper in the barn, so may be able to say tommorow

Ive herd of these hyclones what are they and how could they help please, now getting back on topic lol  I put £40 worth of disel in and it brought the gauge up to 3quater full now done 89 miles at 55-60 and used just under 1 quater dosnt seem too bad (been used to a v8 rrc on lpg) if it keeps going like this Ill be a happy bunni as long as disel stays below £100 per leter at the moment 96.9 I can live with that

Given what they cost I'd love to know where the first one was fitted.  I tried a cheap ali one that you fold yoursefl and I'm really not sure it's any better, but I'm after economy these days.

Hiclones dont work

have proven them on a dyno to cause a loss in power in the midrange due to the restriction they create
