In this Q&A + Advice video also 80series video, how can you go about improving the fuel economy of a 1FZ-FE Landcruiser Music used in this video Operatic 3 by Vibe Mountain
I have a 1997 1fzfe auto 80 and I’ll get roughly the same range as you. About 400ks to the tank depending on driving style. I met a guy in town the other day with the same car. He swears black and blue that he instantly got an extra 300ks!! Out of a tank when he fitted the freewheeling hub kit. Not sure I believe it, but it’s what he reckons. I personally like having the full time 4x4 as I live in a country town and am constantly on and off road with lots of gravel track driving. Thanks for all the 80 series Vids. Great stuff.
The 1FZ petrol engine is thirsty, a part time four wheel drive kit will help marginally. If you want economy buy a Prius. PS. The 1FZ petrol came in the 105 series not the 100 series. The 100 has 2UZ-FE V8 or the 1HD-FTE and independent front suspension.

Thanks for advising 😊👍
Ozzy, you are running rich today!!
Cheers mate it’s a 1997 80 series with 2 inch lift and 33inch m/t
How much are you getting from your 80 series?
Funniest thing is the 100 series V8 gets better fuel economy than the 80 series and 105 series 1fz
Good advice
You still have your 80 series?
Yup, still got it
