V6 Surf 1994

[Kezza]

Hey guys,

Just wondering about the fuel usage of a 1994 SSR-G V6 Auto Surf. Im looking at one at the moment but would like to know abit more about it. Any help is good help

I had a v6 in a 90/91 4 runner,and you could watch the fuel gauge move over a 20 km trip into town..Im putting a turbod km V8 in and think economy will almost improve....but unless this one had issues(not that i was aware of?) it wasn't economical.

Be prepared to spend lots (and lots) on gas that's all , compared to a diesel one anyway

I've had a v6 one in the past and now a v8 one. The v8 is way cheaper to run

and they have no power my holden 3.8 in my hilux uses half the fuel my old 3 litre surf did

yup, I get 400km tithe most from a tank, $130 worth, they have a habit of leaking oil from the valve covers and cam seals as well, I'm in the middle of replacing mine with a 7mge, 60hp more and miles more economical

[bronx89]

Conclusion: get a 1kzte

I have a v6 surf and it is real thursty and way under powered compared to my 1kz surf. Approx $20 for 50 ish kms (altho mine could have other isses and lots oh hills)

Im roughly looking at 300km to a tank around town with approx 40kg worth of gear in it constantly... Does this sound about right ?
