Thanks for your enlightening support, and now I know which engine never to own, even if they are free......Cheers.....
Hi bertrandsv87, please try to keep this post clean and interesting. I post and participate on this forum just to share my findings and of corse things like
clutch setup, gearing, belt tightness, drivetrain mass/efficiency, etc...
are coming in play.
However when I experienced the difference in fuel-consumption, these factors are at their best and so the only thing which comes in my mind is that the driver and his driving style also comes into play.
