help! FC tumaas

[vinj]

My FC on my APV is degrading. It barely at 5km/li while it used to be 7-8 km/li. Made PMS a few months ago, replacing all fluids, filters, spark plugs and belts. Everytime i drive i can observe the fuel gauge go down rather fast. I turned off the aircon on the return trip, the gauge somewhat stood still.

Try also cleaning the sensors (does the APV use a MAF sensor after the air intake? This can be cleaned with electric contact cleaner).

If you drive in the metro, have you considered that traffic lately just plain sucks? It's really gotten worse. I used to average 10-11km/L city driving in my Altis just a little over a year ago; now i'm doing 8.5 to 9km/L with everything else constant in the condition of the vehicle. I thought my Sentra (carburetor) was in need of tuning as i was getting a terrible 5-6km/L at times. I drove it one weekend and i hit 12km/L in the city.
