Fun fact: "Zastava" the factory that produced YUGO also made another car caled: 101 - "Stojadin", that actualy was the first produced hatcback, 3 years earlier than Golf Mk1... You can check the Wikepedia... Greetings...
Thanks for the info!
80 miles an hour in a Yugo. God damn, that's fast.
Scary, but fast!
You should be able to get into 40s easy with fin tuning the carb. Great work and progress so far. 👌
That's a good result for driving so fast in that little Yugo. It was probably made to cruise at 50 mph.
I worked at a dealership that sold yugos. They had to keep several cars for parts on the back 40. They stopped selling them because they were awful.
We're going to make Yugo's great again.... Well, great! Thanks Doc
Man, car is not runing properly. Try to find some mechanic from former Yugoslavia, he would be able to set it right. Change the thermostat, it is open thats why it takes long time to warm it up. Good luck with Yugo
Hi Jason. "What Drives You" Is it John, when he mentioned about the Low Riders? I said I was not aware. I meant about Japan, because I am aware of the Latinos in California with the Low Riders. Thank you for the Reward last night. Loved every minute of it.
Thanks Nick! I think he understood it that way!
Is the timing adjustable? It almost seems like that could help too. Love the video. I definitely think you can get that into the mid 40 mpgs
You might be onto something Casey! It’s almost as if the vacuum advance isn’t working!
I get pretty consistently 38 miles per gallon. My 88 yugo. I do have a new carburetor and runs very good.
I figured this is where I'd be.
Best MPG bet for a carbureted front drive stick shift vehicle if you ignore the outliers like Sprints and Fireflys and Festivas and the like would be a base Escort/Lynx with the 4 speed manual 84-88 or so. Those are hard to find of course. Tercel EZ hatch, 87-90, would be another.
I’m not upset!
Had an 88 trecell. Carbureted car from the 80s consistently got mid 40s for the mpg. Can't understand why "modern" cars aren't twice as good.
Civic
thats fantastic!
I’m not mad!
You missed one really good thing about yugo..since it has no need for high power fuel you can easily transform him into hybrid..to go on gas like propan..for short routes it will save a lot a lot ..tesla just leveled that "Y" into "T" hehe
If it makes it to 100K, you'll get your money's worth! All the best and thanks for the content!
Thanks Glenn
That's pretty decent MPG a carb tune up will definitely help.
For sure
By the way, I love the Yugo. Great little car.
Thanks!
Unlimited smileage, when you trailer it!
You do have a fire extinguisher handy right, I've saw at least 3 of them burning on the side of the road
The car came with a small brass one! lol
wait, is old car guy from new Brunswick? If so, cheers from Fredericton!
Yesir!
I absolutely love the Cordoba
Me too.
@@OldeCarrGuy I like that starter you put on her it really brings Her to life really Quick.
I think that great gas mileage. Great Video!
Thanks Will
Definitely do one on the Cordoba she's so pretty.
I'll make it so!
Man, your Yugo sounds great!, any custom exhaust on it? love the sound lol
No exhaust! lol I cut it off under the floor as it was rusty!
@@OldeCarrGuy Nice! I'd expect it to sound like a civic with a fart can, but it actually has a very nice exhaust note.
Have you ever thought of doing a 5 speed swap on it?
@@Saul_Soto82 Funny you should ask. Check this out! th-cam.com/video/Yd5nhUeYqJI/w-d-xo.html
With aftermarket tires and wheels, and all the vacuum lines ripped out 28 city 38 highway is pretty good. Never seen a Yugo go past 55 mph!
70+ is really pushing it!
Pushing it is right!
Did you keep it at the speed limit exactly on that round robin? It sounded like you were pushing it a bit.
I was doing my best to maintain 70 mph. Its a 4 speed, so it always sounds like its being pushed!
I had a 86 Toyota MR2 that got 37mpg hwy. I never calculated the overall mpg though.
Was Toyota carbed in 86?
@@OldeCarrGuy no. it was fuel injected
The Yugo shows lines that are almost identical to the Mark I VW Golf. Are they somehow related in design, or is it only a coincidence ? How does the Yugo had such a bad reputation in the reliability and safety department, while the Mark I Golf was considered a very good design ?
Not related in any way as far as I know, unless the designers were drinking together!
Put a lawnmower carb on it! 😜
Right!
😂
I would guess that 28 might is good for a yugo
How about more! lol
@@OldeCarrGuy more is always good.
A little carb work and 40 mpg should be no problem
I'm guessing so as well.
Personally I blame squirrels
Sorry eh!
Definitely More miles to the gallon
The Yugo wasn't that bad of a car. The owners just didn't take care of them like they should have. Trabant was far worse than the Yugo. If I had to choose between a Trabant or a Yugo, I would take the Yugo hands down.
whats going on with yugo ? :) you drive it or you sold it ? air conditioner is working?
I just started a new series with it. Check out my latest video! th-cam.com/video/Yd5nhUeYqJI/w-d-xo.html
32 to 35. Would be my guess.
Close!
When is the next episode on the yugo
The engine swap videos will start in just a few weeks. Be sure to subscribe and click the bell for notifications! 👍🏻
@@OldeCarrGuy that is so awesome can’t wait 😊👍
4.1 gallons is my guess.
Not quite!
So she doesn’t have a quiet cabin..
It does not!
Too much gas mileage. Add a turbo.
Soon my friend!
Not so great. 25 city, 30 highway is about all they do. Honestly if you're driving highway you're almost better off in a Panther with a 2V 4.6 and 2.73 gears.
Haha! I’ll never convince a panther guy!
Wait a minute....
36 US mpg = about 44 Imperial mpg.
You think that little critter running the way is does should get better than 44???
I bet you won't get much better with a Toyota engine in it.
Oh, I can see it now... No Toyota engine swap. You watch. Man........
How about the 'Doba mpg? ;)
Toyota swap WILL happen!
