Phrostbyte Forums Junkie I supported Toymods Location: Frankston, Victoria Registered: April 2004	Re: Fuel Usage... Mon, 03 January 2005 18:08 I can vouch for air filter effecting economy. When I first got my car I could get around 450km out of a tank of 40L standard 91o fuel. now im down to about 300... keep in mind i now THRASH THE FUCK outta my 4kc, but beside the point, my air filter is extremely dirty after chopping holes all around the intake and going on dirt roads (cbf spending money to change it, 1.5 months till 4AGE). Basically the air filter being dirty means that your engine isnt getting enough air to mix with the fuel, therefore your engine is running lean, therefore the combustion isnt as powerful, therefore you lose power, therefore you step on the accelerator more to pump more fuel into the engine, for the little power you can get out of more fuel... Change the air filter and I give you 2 to 1 odds of your fuel economy going back to normal. [Report message to a moderator]
