zpd;

Welcome to the Brickboard forum!

Most of us around here can understand your "ensnarement".

In my experience (122 with a B18+.030, dual SU, standard gearing and no OD), I can get approaching 30 MPG at a steady 72mph indicated (that's the "sweetspot") on long trips, but around town, with stop and go traffic, its significantly less (18-22) and very much influenced by my right foot! ...you'll have to do the calculations to bring it into the more common Liters per 100km.

My compliments to your English which is just fine...maybe better than the English one hears from young people who think uneducated is "cool"...and if we notice inconsistencies in the "dialect" we may be used to, it only adds to the unique character of an international forum...and I'd say that's fine too!

Cheers
