It all depends on your right foot.
It's simple.... the harder you drive, the more fuel will use.
An engine will only use what it wants, theoretically there should be no difference between 2 different carbs.but the weber has accelerator pumps.
You will find you will use more fuel with the weber, coz it revs quicker and better
and you'll drive it harder
