Single or Multi...

[LMJ]

Not that it makes any difference to me - just a matter of interest more than anything ... does anyone know what fuel delivery system my car uses? I have been told that it's single, but according to parkers guide it's a multipoint?

I have an early 1996 N reg CLS, with an ABD code engine... anyone know?

Thanks

I expect it'll be single point.

99% sure it's a single.

The multi-point injections were APQ/AEX as far as I can remember

At that rate your hammering it or doing a lot of town driving, thats about 26mpg.

Theres hardly any difference between multi and signle point. i had a multi point ibiza and a single point polo, couldnt tell them apart myself.

aah right - I do town driving, literally college - 1/2 a mile away, and tescos etc. halfords, my girlfriends college - about 4 miles away max.

rarely hammer it tbh - I don't really trust it if I hammer the engine!

That explains the economy then, its amasing how much it changes when your out of town on a good run.

yeah definatley!... it also might explain the "mayo" I have in my breather pipes - short runs, engine running cold, 2 - 3 miles max.

Yup sounds about right, my mums used to do it all the time 4 miles journeys, contant mayo. I had it for 5000 miles and it stopped.
