Post your GAS MILEAGE!! - Page 3

4runnerStu · 04-14-2008, 12:31 PM

Does anyone know to conversion factor for odometer readings? I installed 31s on my truck a 1986 4runner which are bigger than the factory tires. The other day i used google maps for directions, it said the trip would be 96milesbut my odometer only marked 84.

vermontoyota · 04-15-2008, 04:41 AM

just make a ratio of the circumferance of your old tires and new tires....

ex./ old=29" new=32" 32/29=1.103

multiply that ratio by indicated speed or mileage.

so if you drive 100 miles, 100x1.103=110.3 miles.

this may have to do with why some people who only have tire mods get crappy mileage. remember to correct your odometer reading before you do the math..

btw- 1994 extracab 22re with BFG a/t 32" and i get 19-22mpg

87Caper · 04-15-2008, 06:59 AM

the meter is derived from the distance light travels in a vacum over a givin distance.. the speed of light.. approx. 350km to the tank with an adjustment for 33's stock gears and 22re on a 87Runner.. not great

Junkers88 · 04-15-2008, 07:09 AM

86 SR5, 22re, 5 speed, bone stock everything and I got 19 mpg all in-town driving.

yotaman90 · 04-15-2008, 07:53 AM

94 4runner, 3VZ-E, Auto, 14/19 city/highway, stock with 31x10.50's
94 truck, 3VZ-E, 5 speed, 16/22 city/highway, stock with 31x10.50's
87 truck, 22R, 5 speed, 14 city (don't take it on the highway, runs richer than hell), stock with 29.5x9's
75 F-150, 360, 4 speed, don't know mileage- can't afford to fill tank(s), stock, tire size???

KevinInSac · 04-15-2008, 12:32 PM

92 p/u V6 5spd

Stock 4.88

31X10.5 AT/MT

Green93 · 04-15-2008, 04:45 PM

Well just filled up the second tank after my rebuild. First one I got 13.5 mpg. This time I got 15.5 mpg. Same style of driving, same basically all city. I like the way this is going.

Ringmaster · 04-15-2008, 06:16 PM

Right at 22 on the highway, in town just a tick under 16.

How bout the price of gas!? $3.60 for regular, damn!

Jay351 · 04-15-2008, 06:32 PM

Im paying 1.20 a litre. I think thats around 4 bucks a gallon. So no complaining guys

DCYota · 04-15-2008, 06:37 PM

I'm getting around 17.5 mpg average.

88wildrunner · 04-15-2008, 10:00 PM

+ or - 17 average mpg
2.4 22re
35 tires
5.29 gears

22R-to-5VZFE · 04-15-2008, 10:34 PM

1996 SR5 4runner 4x4 5spd w/ 5vzfe v6 if you didn't already know...it has 215,000 miles on original everything w 4.10 gears and I get 17mpg in town and 23 Hwy...this is with 265/75/16's...(that weight 51+ lbs each)

Average I guess, I am trying for 19 in town and 25+ on the Hwy...I will be goin to 245/75/16's that are 14 lbs lighter per tire...that should do somthing right???

According to my calculations that should be a 19%+ reduction in rotating mass...or equal to about -550 lbs dead weight off my rig...

DragonLTD · 04-16-2008, 09:33 AM

'91 truck, 3.0 v6 with downy headers and 2.5" exhaust, K&N FIPK intake kit and 31 x 10.50 Goodyear Silent Armor tires, I get about 17mpg in the summer and 15mpg in the winter with the crappy oxygenated gas.

Thinking of doing a 3.4 swap soon though.
