On average you will get between 2.5 and 3.0 miles per gallon. This assumes
you are running on plane and are running between 3000 and 4000 rpms. The lower the rpms the better the mileage. Everyone wants to quote gallons per hour at a certain rpm. How many hours do you run at the same rpm? Miles per gallon means so much more as you should know how far you have gone using either a chart or a gps. This will tell you exactly how far you can still go on a given amount of fuel. Of course that is my opinion. -- Tony my boats and cars at http://t.thomas.home.mchsi.com "John H" wrote in message ... Does anyone have something that will tell me what the fuel consumption expectations are for a Pro-line 211 walkaround with a 5.7L carbureted engine? It's listed in the Powerboat Guide, which I'm too cheap to buy just to get this question answered. I'm also too cheap to put a fuel meter on it. Actually, I'm so cheap I may not burn the electricity to turn this computer on to get an answer....but I'll love you if you try. Thanks! -- John H "All decisions are the result of binary thinking." |
