    usual tune up:
    change spark plugs if needed
    check high tension wires
    change oil
    replace fuel filter
    clean or replace air filter
    check transmission fluid, top up or replace as needed
    check belts for damage and correct tension
    check coolant level add/replace if needed
    check hoses for damage

    kung carb ang engine, spray some carb cleaner sa carb para luminis ito.
    spray some contact cleaner sa distributor para mawala yung scales sa mga contact points sa loob ng cap.
    check the engine's timing using a timing gun.

    Now youve got all the answer. All you have to do now is, do it yourself (save money for labor))or bring em to shop.

    Best to check your manual kung kelan palit ng fuel filter.

    Kung carb ang oto mo at plastic lang ang fuel filter, mura lang naman ito at madali diy. Kung tama ang memory ko every 10,000 kms ang palit.

    Kung EFI at metal na fuel filter, medyo matagal ang sched at mahal ang filter. Yung sakin every 40,000 kms daw according to CASA, wala kasi sa manual.

    yung ae92 nya does not have a contact point.

    wonder kung surplus yung distributor na nilagay mo. it could be that some of the parts inside are already out of specs, like the pickup coil, iginition coil and the clearance between the rotor and pick up coil.

    kung brand new ang nilagay mong distributor (brand new cost more than P20k plus), you can rule out the distributor as the culprit in your higher gas consumption.

    aside from what userfriendly enumerated, consider also replacing the condenser kung hindi pa napapalitan. this is the one screwed outside the distributor

    dapat mga 7.5 kms per liter on city driving, a/c on all the time. kung laguna ka, hindi naman siguro traffic dyan ano? so, dapat you get more. sa highway mga 12 to 13 kms per liter, a/c on all the time also.

    kumusta ang kulay ng spark plug, since magpalit ka ng distributor? the color will tell you a lot on how your car burns gas.

    pag maiitim yan, you are running rich or since nagpalit ka ng dizzy, baka humina ignition, since sabi mo dati hindi naman ganun kalakas sa gas. in other words the new dizzy is medyo weak and not burning gas effciently.
