I would just like to point out that in marine applications, engine fuel consumption is measured by GPH, as in gallons per hour...

Captain Jim Morash says in this news clip that the old engines are very fuel efficient, even by today's standards, and use about 33 GPH but that getting replacement parts was becoming more of an issue.
