I had my FJ60 engine rebuilt about 2 1/2 months ago. Had my carb rebuilt by Jim C and installed a new H55 tranny . I'm sad to say that the most I've gotten is around 12 to 13 mi per gallon going an average 60 to 65 mph on freeways when there's no traffic that is :-(. Running on 16 x 8 wheels with P2857516 BFG RAD KO TA A/T 8 ply.


I was hoping I'd get at least 15 per gallon. My tank holding 22 gallons.

Hopefully, one of these days someone will figure out a way to get a few more miles to the gallon.

BTW its my daily driver for now. Round trip to my office and home is approximately 46 miles. Doesn't include surf sessions 3 days a week which is an extra 20 miles round trip.
