Anyone know how much diesel your NH TC18, JD 4010, MF GC2300 or BX1800/2200 use per hour?
Neighbor has an old JD of probably about 30ish Hp. Friend of hers who runs it says it uses a gallon/hr. Its fuel gauge no longer works. You have to stick it. Helps to know how much it uses to not have to do this. Thing holds 8 gallons.
I'm guessing these mentioned above use about 1/2 gallon/hr.
A diesel automobile running for an hour at about 3,000ish rpm would probably use near 2 gallons for a mid size and a gallon and a half for a Rabbit/Golf-sized one.
