Poor fuel consumption on dual-fuel 2003 Falcon

I am only getting 334 km from a full tank of petrol – 68 litres – from my dual-fuel 2003 Falcon. Is that right?

No, it's not. Based on your figures it's getting 20 L/100 km, which is pathetic. It should be getting 11-12 L/100 km on petrol. I would give it a tune-up, run some fuel system cleaner through it and clean the throttle body.
