    mga kapatid patulong naman po ako here is the story:

    NISSAN SUNNY 1.3 sampalok engine 1990

    after ko nabili yung sasakyan humahalo yung langis sa radiator pinagtyagaan ko for several months hanggang makaipon pangbili pyesa at machine shop labor so ganito na ginawa ko

    stock engine, new valves seals and guide ( ako mismo bumili at nagpakabit sa machine shop), resurfaced cylinder head, new gasket (of course), replaced timing belt. tamang torque sequence at setting ng main bolt ng cylinder head base sa manual po.

    0 degrees TDC yung piston then yung distributor is naka set sa sentro ng marking (adjusted a few cm para mag 10 deg BTDC)

    tires are slim and standard 13' with 30psi palagi

    FC ko after the above is i think 6-7 NLEX sya ha kasi meycauayan to edsa caloocan lang ang byahe ko

    after several months of pagtiis eh naiinis na ako kasi 6km/l for a 1.3 engine on an expressway is i think bad! knowing light footed ako mag drive at laging naka 5th gear.

    binuksan ko yung carb nakita ko 170 ang jet ng primary (sin laki ng pakong 1' ang diameter) at 60 yung secondary (gakarayom ang diameter) tama po ba yun? or nabaliktad nung unang may ari?

    so ginawa ko

    pinalitan ko ng 110 yung primary at still 60 pa rin yung secondary.

    A/F mixture seems ok kasi yung plugs ko chocolate brown ang tip

    then ngyn 4km/L na lang... lalong naging matakaw sa gas

    after maubos yung 9 liters ko ng fuel (petron XCS) sinubukan ko ipagpalit yung 60 sa primary at yung 170 sa secondary at tinabi ko ulit yung 110 na binili ko baka sakali nagbaliktad lang ng may ari then adjust ulit ako ng A/F mixture

    pakarga ulit ako petron XCS 9 liters.... gues what 4km/L pa rin...

    hindi nagbabawas ng langis at ng tubig. hindi malagkit ang tail pipe ko wala usok sa dip stick at wala din talsik ng oil my brakes are ok

    hose lang nakakabit sa carb nya is advancer at fuel line other than that wala na.

    nag memekaniko din po ako and i've overhauled (both top and general) deisel engines, first time ko mag top overhaul ng gasoline engine of my nissan sunny sampalok engine. kasi napaka ironic naman kumpleto ko halos sa gamit tapos sa iba ko papagawa.

    ano po posible na problema sa BAD fuel consumption ko? any help guys? mga experts sa carbs patulong...

    hindi ko na hinahabol yung rumors na 12km/L ang nissan 1.3 engine kahit maging 9-10km/L man lang pwede na.

    I know there is a solution for this kind of problem... hoping for the guys here makatulong...

    Have the carb overhauled muna. Try buying a repair kit specific to that carb and you can probably do it yourself. A keyster repair kit solved one for me. I replaced every part that is included in the carb repair kit, even the springs.

    As per the engine, what is the resulting compression of each cylinder? Has a compression test already been done? Are all the vacuum hoses intact from the manifold/carb to the actuators/distributor? Does the distributor vacuum advancer work? Among other stuff pa.

    Iba talaga ang gas engine kasi aside from correct fuel delivery, dapat tama din ang ignition.

    never actually measured the compression of the cylinders but in my instinct and thumb test still has a good compression.... kasi kung loose compression na yung nissan ko ngi ko na napapakamot eh... eh kahit 60 ang primary jet nya pag pinakamot ko grabe iyak ng gulong eh parang nag tokyo drift ako hehehe wala na talaga ako ibang pinagbibintangan sir kung hindi yung carb.... wala sa tamang tono.... am a mechanic but carb is not really my expertise.... iba talaga carb specialization.... ibang major yung kung baga sa college hehehehe... i'll try to bring it to a carb shop... a already asdk a carb specialist... and he gave me a money back guarantee hehehehe.... 680 pesos daw po including na yung parts at tamang jetting daw.... ndi ko na tinanong kung ano tamang sukat ng jetting kasi alam ko trade secret nila yun and may be akward kung pati yun eepal pa ako d b.... pero hanggang ngyn palaisipan talaga sakin yung FC ko... grabeng grabeh daig ko pa nakaexpedition eh...

    Ang main jet niyan is 89, secondary is 145. Ignition timing at 91-93 octane gas should be 2 +-2 BTDC * idle speed of 800 +-50 with distributor vacuum removed and plugged.

    have observed the damn carb.... overhauled sya last saturday... pero palyado.... and binalik ko ulit yun 60 primary at yung 110 ang secondary pero nung chineck ko yung plugs pucha rich ang mixture... pinihit ko na yung air ng clock wise hanggang sa sarado na pero rich pa rin kasi itim na itim ndi katulad dati na hindi pa naoverhaul yung carb choco brown ang kulay ng plugs ko ngyn kahit 60 na ang primary ng jet tapos halos sagad(clockwise) na yung air pero rich pa rin ang mixture ko.... bad trip... mas lalo lumakas...sayang yung 650 na bayad.... mga guru ang air ba pag pinihit ng clockwise(pahigpit) more air and less fuel? another thing totoo ba na pagnagpalit ako ng carb ng pang 4k may good effect si FC? ndi kasi ako maconvince kasi naniniwala pa rin ako sa factory setting eh pls help...

    another thing sir the carb guy asked me to buy a thinner so inisip ko gagamitin pang linis so i baught a laquer thinner pag balik ko sabi nya yung paint thinner nagtaka ako kasi d b yung paint thinner is just plain kerosene? correct me if i'm wrong so inisip ko "Your the expert" so balik ako sa pinagbilhan ko pinapalitan ko yung laquer thinner to a paint thinner... nagtataka lang po ako kasi mas maganda ang melting capacity ng laquer thinner compared to a paint thinner when it comes to residue and gum deposit d b? any one here who have tried to go to "Mand Ado Carburator specialist? along mindanao ave going to NLEX? sa kanya ako nagpunta eh. tnx in advance po.

    sir eto mga ginawa ko

    i have done some reasearch ewan ko kung tama ako... here it goes...

    pinaoverhaul ko yung carb ko sabi ng gumawa ok na yan titipid na yan wag ko daw muna ikabit yung air filter ko at medyo luma na daw then after several kilometers kabit ko na daw ulit pero mas maganda daw stockings ikabit ko effective daw yun... truthfully speaking hindi ako convince kasi halos ganun pa rin ang consumption and i'm running rich in fuel he said pinalitan na daw nila ng jets at nalaman ko hindi nila pinalitan kasi sa gigil at inis ko na sa auto binaklas ko yung carb i found out hindi pinalitan ng jetting kasi yung jett na nakakabit at yung dati pa rin hindi ko sinabing binaklas ko yun bago ko dinala sa kanya... akala nya siguro hindi ko malalaman ayun the 680 pesos na cost (kasama na daw pyesa dun na papalitan) e wala naman pala pinalitan at yung secondary jet ay may pasak ng parang adhesive na AFAIK eh matagal nang nakapasak dahil iba na kulay(siguro akala nung unang may ari ng sasakyan titipid pag pinasakan yung seconady jet) ayun sa inis ko yung 90 na stock jet pinalitan ko ng 80 at yung stock secondary jet na 145 ay pinalitan ko ng 95 timpla timpla ulit ng A/F mixture, niluwqagan ko ng todo nung natanggal yung screw namatay makina (hindi katulad nung una na 90 yung primary eh kahit tanggal yung screw hindi namamatay yung makina) ginamit ko yung sasakyan for about 6.5 kilometer then check the plugs ayun choco brown na ulit at hindi na itim na uling. kanina umaga sinubukan ko yung stockings ang kinabit (kumupit pa ako ng stockings sa closet ni misis) kinabit ko sa nozzle ng air filter casing bumili ako ng gasoline nilagay ko sa 1.5 bottle ng coke nirekta ko yung hose mura fuel filter hanggan sa bottle pati yung return nirekta ko sa bottle at yung bottle ay nasa paanan ng co driver's seat (para kitang kita ko) sabi ko kay wifey buksan muna window kasi baka mahilo tayo hehehe umalis na kami going to work (6.5Km from house to work) ayun naubos lang ng sasakyan 6.5Km is 750ml(nilagyan ko kasi ng pentel pen yung 250ml level, 500ml, 750ml, 1000ml, 1250ml at yung 1500ml using graduated cylinder na hiniram ko sa science lab ng anak ko ) so by computation (1000ml / 4 = 250ml x 3 =750ml then 6.5km / 3 = 2.16km x 4 = 8.66km) so therefore na prove ko na i'm averaging 8.66km/L of gasoline city driving with uphill and downhill of about 1km from house to main road with light trafic kasi past 7:00AM na kaya madami na jeep na nagsasakay at nagbababa ng students.

    mga ginawa ko para makuha ko yung tamang tipid:

    1 tinanggal ko yung mga tools:
    (crocodile jack, i set steveman socket with metal case, 1 set steveman deep socket with plastic case, 1 set alen
    key, 1 set star key, 1 set 24pcs combination wrench, 1 set 12pcs open wrench, i tool box with adjustable wrench,
    vise grip set of screw drivers, torque wrench)
    2 palit jetting from 90 to 80 primary at from 145 to 95 secondary
    3 tinanggal ko yung lumang air cleaner element kinabitan ng stockings courtesy of wifey
    4 pitik pitik lang sa gas pedal

    i hope some of our friends here wag mangyari yung nangyari sakin... bago kayo magpagawa pagaralan nyo na lang mabuti sayang ang pera 680 pesos plus gasoline(syempre tetestingin nyo yun so waste of fuel lang) tama rin ang sinabi ng kapit bahay ko "sa kagustuhan mo makuha ang tamang consumo ng sasakyan mo"

    I hope this will help... may mga gagawin pa ako research of tweaking my ride baka mapatipid ko pa ito dahil baka pwede pa ako mag adjust ng A/F mixture kung kaya pa...

    BTW yung research ko po after ko natapos napapakamot ko pa yung sasakyan kaya i know there is still power na pwede ko pang ibaba i'm still thinking to add air sa A/F mixture to increase in FE pero konti na lang siguro kasi alam ko masama naman sa makina sobrang lean... anyone here na may alam kung hihigpitan ko pa ba ng sagad yung A/F screw para madagdagan yung air of paluwag? kasi may konti pang amoy gas sa muffler ko eh baka it still needs air to make a complete combustion... TIA po mga guru...

    good day sir, mukhang ok na po ang nissan nyo , meron din po ako carb equip na vehicle pag nag adjust po ako ng a/f mixture dahan dahan po pihit clockwise hanggang maging lean ang mixture malalaman mo po na lean na sya kasi manginginig na ang engine and engine RPM will drop down from this point turn the a/f mixture counterclockwise 2 full turn then smell the exhaust for unburn fuel kung may amoy gas pa tweak na lang po ng kaunti cloclwise yung a/f screw

    maraming salamat sir danteps... tinesting ko na yung adjustments 1/4 na lang tinira ko and will check the plugs mamaya pagdating sa bahay kung kulay ash yung plugs iaadjust ko na bahagya yung fuel hanggang sa maging light brown...

    I suggest na ibalik sa 145 ang secondary main jet. Hindi mo naman magagamit yun kung hindi ka malalim umapak sa gas unless your carb is not operating properly or worse, naka "simul" mode (sabay mag open ang primary and secondary flaps for power). Kasi kung umabot yung time na kelangan mo na ng additional power for uphill, baka tumope nang husto ang engine mo pag sakal ang secondary main jet mo.

    Also, ipa-compression test mo lahat ng cylinders. P150 lang ata yun sa petron car care center sa pasig.

    Ok sir naisip ko rin yun kasi hindi naman bumubuka yung butterfly nung secondary kung hindi galit yung makina tama ba ako? question din po sir kompressor bakit hindi bumubuka yung butterfly ng secondary pag nirerev ng naka hinto yung sasakyan? bumubuka lang ba sya pag hataw mode? ano po yung "simul" mode?

    BTW nag 13Km/L nga po pala ako ngyn mula sa bahay papunta dito sa work 6.5Km po tinakbo ko at yung container sa tabi ko 500ml lang inubos question po ulit sir Kompressor and sir danteps... normal po ba na pag nagpark ka tapos sa umaga walang pondo yung bowl ng carb? parang nageevaporate eh pansin ko yun sa sasakyan ko pag garahe ko check ko yung salamin sa carb nasa level pero pag check ko kinabukasan wala na laman yung bowl pero yung fuel filter since transparent sya laging puno... is this normal na magevaporate yung fuel sa bowl pagtapos mo gamitin yung sasakyan? TIA po...

TIA po...
    di po dapat nauubos yung pondo ng gas ,check your float valve baka po may back flow kaya nauubos, or naka open ang choke plate causing evaporation ng gas

    Bubuka dapat yan pag sinagad mo yung pihit ng throttle. May cam lobe sa throttle assembly na tumutulak para bumuka yun and yung engine vacuum ang nagpapabuka nun fully open. Pag ayaw kahit sinagad, malamang pinatay yung vacuum port and bahagya lang siya bubuka pag tinamaan ng cam lobe sa throttle assy.

    ano po itsura nung float valve sir? yun po ba yung nasa ibabaw ng bracket ng float na nagsasara pag may pondo na sa level? kasi sa unang start mga 300 to 500 ml din po ang hinihigop nya eh iniisip ko saan napupunta yung fuel halimbawa pag tapos ko gamitin yung sasakyan let say may natira 2liters kinabukasan pag tingin ko sa carb wala pondo yung bowl then pag start hihigop sya nga madami sa container then lelevel na yung fuel ko sa 1500ml so 500 ml din ang nawawala iniisip ko nageevaporate ito pero bakit ganun kadami? wala naman traces ng fuel sa sahig ng pinagparadahan ko... tapos yung container may vacume effect kasi pag bukas ko ng takip hihigop ng hangin papasok sa conatiner. ang ginawa ko po kasi container ay naka inplant yung copper tube na dalawa intake at return using adhesive para walang leak.

    BTW 13.7km/L inubos ko from Monumento caloocan to divine mercy church marilao via EDSA and NLEX with an average speed of 100Km/H to 110Km/H then 8.6km/L from Divine church to Marilao grand villas with Average speed of 40-60Km/H kasi traffic (Ash Wednesday) all in all 22.3km from caloocan to marilao grand villas.

    Pauwi marilao Grand villas to marilao exit 9.7Km 750ml of fuel then from marilao exit to mindanao avenue 16.3km 1250ml fuel with aircon on and off (yosi)

    so halos ok na fuel consumption ko with 80 primary and 95 secondary jetting yung evaporation na lang ngyn ang iniisip ko saan kaya ang salarin nun?

    sir yung secondary butterfly ang nagpapabuka is yung parang vacuum diaphragm ba tawag dun? na connected sa isang hose papunta sa lower right ng carb about naman po dun sa choke plate laging bukas pero pag start ka engine pipitik pasara then pag start na bubukas ulit. i'll check ngyn yung carb sir kung bubuka yun pag dinagad yung throttle....

    as for the choke i check mine at nakasara sya pag off ang engine mag open lang sya once started na ang engine at may nadevelop ng vacuum, on my ride its vacuum actuated kasi di ko alam yung sa nissan kung electric or vacuum actuated sya
