MORE WAYS TO SAVE FUEL

There are other ways to increase the performance and mileage of your vehicle. For starters, making sure you service your vehicle at it's proper intervals. This includes changing the oil on time, making sure ALL your drive train and engine fluids are topped up and are clean.

You can also increase the distance between fill ups by changing your engine, differential, transfer case & transmission fluids to fully synthetic fluids.

Hard braking, hard accelerating and poor tire pressure will also affect your mileage. SO the next time you are driving check your driving habits. Chances are there is some room for improvement to gain those extra miles out of your tank.

How to convert L/100 km to miles per gallon (mpg) or vice versa

To convert L/100 km to MPG, use the appropriate formula, depending on where you live:

  • In Canada and Europe: 282.481 ÷ (insert value) L/100 km = MPG (Imperial gallon)
    (for example, if you use 8 litres per 100 km, you'd be getting 282.481 divided by 8 = 35.3 mpg)
  • The U.S. gallon is about 20% smaller than the Imperial gallon that is used in Canada and Europe, so a different formula is required. In the U.S.: 235.2146 ÷ (insert value) L/100 km = MPG (US liquid gallon)

To convert MPG to L/100 km, use the appropriate formula, depending on where you live:

  • In Canada and Europe: 282.481 ÷ (insert value) MPG (Imperial gallon) = L/100 km
    (for example, if you get 35 mpg, then you'll use 282.481 divided by 35 = 8.1 litres per 100 km)
  • In the U.S.: 235.2146 ÷ (insert value) mpg (US liquid gallon) = L/100 km
 
Maximum Fuel Economy Kits

Available for ALL Duramaxes
Let's face it, fuel prices aren't going to decrease. The days of cheap diesel fuel are gone. To combat the strain on your pocket book, we have come up with a Kit that will gain you those precious extra miles per gallon.

Below you will see the price of each PLUS the MPG savings you will get with each of these kits.

To figure out how much fuel you are saving it is best to get a record of fuel consumption BEFORE the installation of this Kit and then do another record of fuel consumption AFTER the installation of this Kit.

It is best to record 3-4 tanks of fuel and then calculate the average to get your L/100 Km or MPG.

To figure this out, read below...

FAST FACTS!!
If you want to figure out average L/100Km here is a tutorial on figuring this out accurately and properly.

  1. Write down your EXACT number of Kilometers shown on your odometer and keep this figure handy.
  2. Fill up your tank completely and record how many Litres were put into the tank.
  3. After your road session, go back tot he gas station and fill up your tank again.
  4. Record the amount of Litres put into the tank and take note of your Odometer reading.
  5. Next is to calculate the amount of fuel used per 100 Km.
  6. Let's say you traveled 540 kilometers using 49 liters of fuel. To calculate your average fuel economy, divide the number of liters (49) by the distance traveled (540) and then multiply by 100. That's it! In this case, the result is 9.07 L/100 km.


If you want to figure out your average MPG (Miles Per Gallon) here is a tutorial on figuring this out accurately and properly.

  1. Write down your EXACT mileage shown on your odometer and keep this figure handy.
  2. Fill up your tank completely
  3. Next time you need gas write down the mileage shown on your odometer. Subtract this figure from the first mileage reading. This represents the number of miles that you traveled since your last fill up.
  4. Fill your up your gas tank completely and write down the number of gallons needed to fill your tank.
  5. Take the number of miles since your last fill up (figured in step 3) and divide this by the number of gallons needed to fill up your tank (from step number 4).
  6. This is the number of miles per gallon that your vehicle is getting. Repeat these steps several times to get an average mpg for your car. Remember that highway driving uses less gas than city driving and different levels of ethanol will affect your mpg.
