REDKG's thread got me thinking. Did a search, but got no threads show up. I read beetles are economical and am curious on what other beetle owners get out of their pride and joys.
I have a 71 beetle 1600, and have not worked consumption out yet. I am trying to trace where the fuel leak is first. Until I figure that out, I'm not filling it up completely.

i get about 400 km out of a sbug tank and a little less with my 2L type 4 motor. i cruise at 110km most of the time

how many litre is an sbug tank?.

about 40 when you take in to account the reserve

hmm. so u get about 10l per 100km. mine was getting about 25-30l per 100km last time i ran it.

thats not good ive only been up that high once and thats when i put the progressive webber on and it was idling at 1500 rpm. what have you got in there

it is just a 1600 dual port. with twin kadrons.
