4A-C seriosly bad fuel consumption... Tue, 29 March 2005 02:54 Go to previous message
Did a search and couldn't find any info on how to fix the problem...

When I first got the car I was getting 400+ kms to a tank with reasonably hard driving,

I sucked heaps of crap thru the carby a long time ago so it wouldnt idle, one of my friends dads decided to just dial the idle screw up heaps so it idled at 2.5k then i took it to get fixed properly and it ran nicely but only giving me about 250kms to a tank, then i sucked shit in again.
This time me and a mate cleaned out the carby ourselves (well he did it all but yeah it got done) and now I have screwed in the mixture screw all the way in and played with the idle screw so the engine is only just running (so if i screw in the mixture screw one more bit it will cut out) the mixture screw was very far out and exhaust used to stink like fuel now the fuel smell isnt as bad, but I am still only getting 200-250kms from a tank! I DONT GET IT!!!
What am I supposed to do to get my fuel consumption back to 400+ kms form a tank???
Constantly buying fuel is really eating up my 4AGE savings!!!

Someone PLEASE give me some advice??? has anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

Thanks for any advice and help!
