Your guess is dead on. I usually run in 4 hour intervals and in that time I burn 15 gal, but as you stated that's wide open for the flow. I put my 100 through her paces today. I'm on a project clearing 4+ acres where 3 acres were flooded by beavers. My bid included clearing and mulching all 3 dams and mulching there den. Let's just mention the dams were 15' across, 7' at there deepest, and 8-10' thick. Used a excavator for that, and to pull my 100 out of the mud, I had it buried up to the skid pans. This area has been flooded for 3 years now. My 100 has gone where no skid has gone before but what a mess. I've got alot of cleaning to do. I knew the likelyhood of getting stuck was extremely high, my brother did his best to make me a road across the little drainage ditch but it didn't work. I finally had him push me across and wait and pull me back. Gotta do what it takes to get that paycheck. And on the subject of fuel we are going through 25-30 gal. a day on this job. Definitly got to get that paycheck!!. Robbie
