Recently acquired this 1997 BMW 328i Touring (estate) fitted with an LPG system..
its got 193 BHP, and is geared for 2500rpm at 60mph with a 5 speed Manual
weight is circa 1500kg, and the Cd is similar to my 318iS (0.30)
its being used to do the 48 mile round trip to my work daily, coupled with runs to/from my unit at the weekends
Fuel logging is currently working this way..
Petrol tank filled
LPG filled to 45L (from empty)
Run until LPG is out and refill to 45L
Car will start on LPG, so the petrol is really only there incase I run out without having LPG to hand..
Have an LPG station 1 mile from house, and 1 mile from work, so have made it to stations easily.
I'll top up the petrol once 1/2 the tank is used, so I know total number of gallons (LPG and petrol) used to cover the miles. this will give a combined fuel MPG
any suggestions re this recording method?
anyways Here's some pics:
Car needs front tyres changed to correct 205/55/16s- will do asap
As per usual- open to any suggestions/hints/tips you have re aero/modding or driving technique
Cheers!
