1999 W210 E300 Turbodiesel Fuel Economy / Engine Oil

[kwakdonut]

Just bought a 1999 E300 TD today. Fuel consumption not as good as I expected. 30ish. Just wondered has anyone got expereience with magnetic fuel economisers?
Has anyone run on kerosene as per handbook or similar (only40p litre).
And what is the MAF ?

Thanks Stuart

Don't bother with the magnet things, they are a gimmick.

30ish mpg is normal depending on your driving style/journey etc.

Kerosene? You mean like aircraft fuel? I wouldn't but some members on here run on chip fat!

The MAF is the Mass Air Flow Sensor located between air filter and turbo/inlet.
