Diesel Mileage: 1985 – 1987

by

The 1985 through 1987 model years are packed with diesel-engine cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. A number of these vehicles provide excellent mileage results. If you can find an old oil burner that’s stood up to the years, it could be your low budget ticket into the world of biodiesel and straight vegetable oil (SVO) conversions. But make no mistake about it, these are loud and smelly old school diesels. While there may be gems to find, rust aside, you’ll do well to avoid many of the diesel-powered vehicles of this vintage, regardless of their mileage ratings.

5 thoughts on “Diesel Mileage: 1985 – 1987”

  1. Where do you get your numbers. I’m doing much better
    (and carefully done) than anything you have here on my vehicles.

  2. HD – Congrats on your excellent results! Our database is based on the official (unadjusted) sticker estimates.

  3. You should also have lists of trucks and suvs. Mpg figures for older trucks like the s10 are hard to find. Basically this website is incomplete without older trucks and suvs MPG figures. Also this website should have a better set-up other than having to scroll the sitemap for different vehicles.

  4. It would help to complain a little more. Sticker figures, what else would they do have manuf’s make some retro’s just to gain a few mpg’s. “Basically” go somewhere else if you don’t like it.

  5. Please respond to 38 MPG from my 1985 Volvo 760 GLE Turbo Diesel. It is a low compression/high revolution engine that the turbo was not even working properly on. I remeber it to redline at 5000 RPM and am trying to find more info about it. Please respond with any comments relating to this unusually interesting engine.
