RE: Stag MPG

[Richard Hudson <richard.hudson@domain.elided>]

I must have averaged a good 80mph most of the way across Northern france
(motorway of course) and I turned 22mpg

Take it easy and the figure goes up to 26ishmpg. Around town very
dissapointing.. anything from high teens to low 20's

	Hi Dan
	    Done.   Aah, about the 13mpg....you might want to lift your
foot off the
	accelerator pedal once in a while!! Seriously, if your tailpipe
is black
	soot inside, the carbs are running too rich.  If the Tailpipe is
not black
	soot but grey, the first comment applies.
