Ran across this by accident, and thought it might be of interest to someone, if only to see a picture of the pieces parts.

18 GPM pump!?!? 18 gallons per minute?!

Oh, I got it, circulation pump for the antifreeze...I was thinking fuel.

I fixed the link above and here are the specs for the 80,000 BTU unit.

Whoa, that explains my increase when I filled up on my montly maintenance run. I guess I should be happy that it wasn't a brake dragging or something else causing my milage to increase, it was the Webasto's fuel consumption. I thought I read somewhere that the Webasto's fuel consumption was like a quart every 20 hours, guess that was WAY off.

[JIM CHALOUPKA]

Geoff, there are two sizes of Webasto units. Is yours this same high BTU unit?

To be honest, I don't know, but based on the jump in my fuel usage, I'm thinking yes. I went from 9-12 gallons, to 25 gallons on my last fill.
