Latest journey 36 MPG roughly (diesel)....

What's the MPG like? Can I use chip fat and veggie oil? What about LPG?

Noticed my tickover when hot was undulating a bit, I think previous owner had messed about with the screw at the bottom of the throttle body, so tweaked that and the revs are now steady and the drive home from a night on the South Downs seemed by the fuel gauge to be frugal, so fingers crossed better mpg, ac on econ.

Good to see decent mpgs good luck with the increases Flanners. I never thought the Millers was doing much
for the mpg but to be fair I have never really tested it. The smoothness and lack of smoke, prompt starts is worth it alone.
In theory 1 bottle could do you the best part of 4,000 miles (10 tanks at 400miles). I often double dose mine as you can with
the diesel version it really rolls nicely with that in, smooth and quiet, at 55mph you barely know it was a diesel.

So much so I have not bothered with doing a BG244 can for years, runs perfect as is.
