My car with a normal driver
Well my business partner borrowed the saturn to view a property out of state. I thought this would be a good time to see how the saturn would do with a "normal" driver.
Tanks are as follows
456.5 10.2 44.75mpg (EGR disabled)
395 9.33 42.33mpg (The EGR valve was enabled at 5/8ths tank)
237 5.87 40.37mpg
average 42.85mpg.
Its interesting to not that the average cruise speed, on interstate, was 79mph or above. He shifts late 3k rpms+. He stated that he ran the car hard the last tank. He also said that he ran the car very hard for 1.5hours on country roads late for an appointment.
I was experimenting with the EGR before he left. So I let him run a tank and then had him plug it back up. I will be testing this further.
