K2hoy: Its not too bad although im still running in the engine
Adam-D: I cant tell wot it is as i dont have any Diagnostics for the Omex Management so i thought maybe getting a rolling road session might be able to flag up the problem with the fueling

80 miles to 3/4 of a tank may be normal!
30 miles to a tenner in that sort of car is not uncommon.

i wouldt say so my mate runs tb's and his does better fuel consumption than mine if driven nicely but open it up and it rapidly decreases. From the pops and bangs i wouild deffo say its overfueling as the flame is a classic tradmark Get it mapped and enjoy 25-30mpg
Tell tale sign is to check your sprak plugs? I'd be guessing thery are new check for dark carbon on them if so deffo running rich
