    5kms is pretty short. It'll help if you measure your consumption exactly (in kilometers per liter).

    With the 1.3 LEC, you have to clean the carburetor out every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers to keep the fuel economy good. All it requires is a good spray of carb cleaner and choking the carb. Also check the condition of your air filter.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    What gasoline did you use? Maybe it was an E10 gasoline brand?

    hmm.... GOLD (caltex)

    when E10 implemented hindi na ko nagpa gas ng Silver

    and if in case nagpalagay ng Silver there will be a slight different in FC but not that too much

    I think 1st sir tune up muna... palit fuel filter, air filter, oil and sparkplugs. Then palinis ng Carb using carb cleaner. pa check na rin yung breaks and wheel bearing kung need to replace na din. Camber alignment na rin po. Sama niyo na rin yung tire pressure sir.

    Most owners sometimes neglect to use there car for long driving or highway driving to let all the carbon let out on the exhaust pipe . Have you noticed that when you use your car for a long drive you feel something different on acceleration of the car it feels light compared to use it on a city driving in a 5 to 10km a day . Just my observation.

    Yesterday I had my Brothers FE tuned up... Looks like this time nakuha na yung tamang timing... The engine feels more responsive than before... hopefully by next full tank we can achieve better millage... Bro pa tune up mo muna mabuti and check timing...

    Sir
    on highway (14 to 17km/l). (speed 70-90 km/h)
    14 km/l (loaded)

    on city driving ( 10-11km/l) (worst 5-6 km/l)

    sabi nila matipid nga daw ung saskyan (baguio - manila one full tank may extra pa na natira )

    Try to check next time you will go for a long trip observed the carbon on your tail pipe if the carbon is whitish meaning to say your engine is in good condition and the fuel burn well.

    tune-up might be needed. Not just replacing the spark plugs but with valve clearance adjustments.

    you might also want to check on the exhaust pipes, baka may butas (not needed if wala namang nadagdag na ingay sa tambutso)


tumaas sa konsumo ng gas humina pa hatak
