Post by solarpanel on Aug 8^th, 2007, 9:41pm

after the hose that goes through the block split and it dumped the water out,the engine started after repair but it rumbles at about 3k rpm,so ive fitted the ex plod engine i had kept [goes better]but ive notice that the lph rate is 1.5/1.7/1.9 when warm.......so what does you cossie run at.....solarpanel

i take it you mean at idle,

they should run at just below 1000 rpm (limited to reduce a strong creep with the autobox)

not rpm.....litres per hour at idle its using 1.5/1.9.......if you turn the mode to kph/litres etc you can see lph rate.....it idles at 800

When my cossie was running it took about 1.2-1.5 when in N and 1.5 to 2 when in D. The values depend on the temperature.
