    How much more gas than petrol

    Ford Ford Advice Ford Courier Ford Courier Advice Ford Courier 1996
    Is it normal to be getting 5 km/litre when running a 2.6-litre 1996 Ford Courier on gas in city traffic? Also, is a car that has fuel injection supposed to be more economical?

    The rule of thumb is that a vehicle would use around 20 per cent more LPG than it would use of running on petrol. On average a 1996 Ford Courier would do around 12.5L/100 km on petrol, which means it should do around 15L/100 km, or 6.6km/litre, on gas. On that basis yours is thirsty. On your second question, yes you would expect a car with fuel injection to be more economical than one with a carburetor.
