    Magandang araw mga Bossing,

    Baka naman may maisu suggest kayo na maayos gumawa ng Power Steering ng Mazda E2000 nag li-leak kasi ung ATF ng powervan ko, along QC area sana. Tanung ko din kung ok ba na magpa install ako ng fuel saving device sa powervan, medyo malakas kasi sa gasolina.

    Salamat sa mga sasagot

    The E2000 with the manual isn't too bad in terms of economy, but the AT sucks balls.

    Fuel saving device? Sell the van and replace it with a manual transmission diesel. Even tried and tested methods like carburetor rejetting are going to be useless with that automatic transmission sucking up fuel like a diabetic pig.

    Power steering repair... depends on where you are. Parts should be easy to find, since there are Japanese and Korean replacement parts for the E2000... because the Kia Besta is based on the Mazda platform. But from experience, the Japanese replacement parts are better. Or at least they used to be.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Thanks Niky for the reply, my E2000 is manual transmission just checking if my FC is normal (5-6 km/l city driving; 8-9 km/l long distance driving).

    Best fuel-saving device: Your right foot.

    Wala pong gumaganang fuel-saver ngayon (Khaos, GT Oil etc...) all of them are scams.

    Kung gusto po maka-tipid sa gas, huwag na mag-kotse kung hindi kailangan.

    hahahaha salamat renzo_d10, malapit ko na ngang gawin un, pero base sa mga information dito sa forum mukhang ganun nga talaga ang FC ng mga MAZDA.

    salamat sa mga sagot

    malakas talaga sa gas yan. parts are also expensive imho. just to give you a point of comparison, a carb repair kit costs 2500. replacement pa yun.

    as for power steering, a competent power steering shop should be okay since di naman ganun complicated yan.
