Mga tol!
Posible kayang pakontiin ang fuel consumption ng Nissan Vanette? I just owned a '96 model Vanette, so far ok naman lahat pero yun nga lang, sobrang aksaya sa gas. Minsan, lumalamon ng 5km/liter. As in talagang butas ang bulsa ko. So do you think it's possible? If so, how? Is it tested na to be effective? And ano kaya ang side effect nito?
To those vanette owners, how much is your average fuel consumption? Sa'kin kase is 5km/liter.

thanks nightrock!
perhaps you could tell me how to instruct the people in the shop coz i really don't know anything about the routine service/change oil that you are talking about. i bought the van just now and it's my first ride so i would really appreciate it if you could teach me the details of how to solve its inefficient fuel consumption problem.
thanks!

pa-tune up mo lang yan bossing saka medyo gaangan mo ang right foot mo sa gas pedal.

check mo na rin tire pressure, fluid levels, also check your muffler baka may butas.

Since you just got the car, it may be adviseable to do the following:
- drain and change all your fluids (brake, Power Steering, radiator, gear, axle, etc...).
- Get a tune-up and change oils (change your spark plugs, check the timing, change also your oil and fuel filters... fuel filter should be changed every 20,000km along with the air filter).
- Overhaul the carburator and have it tuned properly: Take it to a Carb Specialist shop. They have several along Kamuning/Kamias, i'd recommend "Kamuning CArb Specialists". They can make "sakal" the carb to reduce fuel consumption but it will affect your performance, not good since you need the power with that van.
We used to have one and it would average around 6-7km/L in the city and 8-9 on the highway... We got a change oil and tune-up every 5,000km.
You can also try changing the filter to a free-flow one (Simota, K&N)...
Of course, don't forget to adjust and reevalute your driving style... that can be good for a 1-2km/L difference.Last edited by vinj; March 1st, 2005 at 06:30 PM.

thanks guys,
kakapa-adjust ko lang ng menor nya kahapon but i think sumobra yata ang baba. Pina-adjust ko to 0.9rpm but nung pinaadar ko yung A/C, the van starts to shake then bumaba yung rpm to 0.8. Nung tinanong ko yung friend ko na may vanette din, sabi nya naka 0.5 lang daw yung van nila and wala namang problema. he adviced me to check my carburator.
i think 0.5 for menor is sobrang baba na for my vanette, what's the correct adjustment? bakit kaya hindi na kinakaya ng vanette ko yung 0.9 pa lang na menor?

sobra talaga lakas sa gas niyan. hinriam ko minsan ung sa lolo ko, pansin mo talaga pag baba ng gas. masabihan nga lolo ko. daily driver pa naman niya un papuntang mga project.
Puwede i try, 1. Palit air filter 2. Linis throttle body 3. Linis MAF sensor 4. Check spark...
high idle RPM at engine start
