Petrol?
Staying at a certain amount of revs...say 5k RPM or accelerating to 5k revs, back down to tickover straight back up to 5k RPM?

accelerating I would say in a way.
basically how much your foot down is how much your throttle is open / fuel being chucked in - obviously if your driving at 5k constantly it'll be using more fuel than driving at 2k constantly.
but if your putting foot to floor accelerating to 5k, slowing down, putting foot to floor back up to 5k etc constantly i'd say it'd use more.
