2005 Fiesta Modding thread - Fuel Economy, Hypermiling, EcoModding News and Forum

this is purely to show progress and results on my 2005 ford fiesta 1.4. I still need to figure out how to submit fuel logs on this site but im getting there. before any modding happens I want to know by just driving alone what my consumption is. only mod is tyre pressure at 2.4 bar (35psi) and my driving style. I don't have a scan gauge yet nor does my model fiesta have a fuel economy reader. so doing it old school litres divided by kilometres driven. then as I will compare readings after each set of mods.

one of the best thing ever to help my FE is by not using my car. I join a lift club and we rotate cars once a week. no better feeling knowing that for the next week my car is home and my fuel consumption is 0!

Sharing a ride is definitely a good way to save fuel.
