What's your Fuel Consumption... Gallons per Hour

Re: What\'s your Fuel Consumption... Gallons per Hour

I'm running a M9000 and have a fairly accurate measure of fuel usage I have a 300 gallon tank that was bought same time as the tractor and have almost 250 hours on the tractor and very close to being empty fuel storage tank so 1.2 gallons per hour over the long haul. I chisel plow, disk, run a hydraulic auger, box blade miles and miles of roads and lots of FEL work and front mounted BTR Grapple gathering brush and trees. I have a Rhino TW72 Shredder but I still haven't even hooked it up to see if it works after over a year and a half, guess I didn't need to mow as much as I thought I did when purchasing it or I'd have forgone the mower and gotten the backhoe.

My 4320 has averaged .7/hr for 225 hours. Most of the time when running the backhoe I go through .6gal/hr. When I am running the MX6 at PTO speed I go through a gallon an hour.

My Mitsu D1800 uses 1 gallon a day. It is capable of more work than that but I'm not. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Retirement is great, goodbye crap, hello nap! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Old Yanmar 1401D, as little as 4 hours per gallon (not gallons per hour) up to 2.5 hours per gallon when mowing.
