Toyota D4D engine woes

accurate ba yung fuel consumption meter sa mga fortuner at innova?

last sunday i traveled to dagupan, approximately 400kms back & forth, tapos almost half tank of fuel consumed, so assuming 30 liters ang nagamit ko, so supposedly around 12 ~ 13 km/li diba? but the meter showed that my avg fuel consumption is just 10 km/li

The margin of error is ( ~ - 0.5 ) to whatever the reading the meter gives out, at least for the Fortuner. You can try it yourself by comparing your own computations and the meter's readings.

now that's odd, percentage difference is kinda big... well i'm driving a fortuner 3.0V... anyone who has the same experience as i do?

Its not percentage. For example, the meter reads out 7.3 km/li, subtract 0.5 from that figure and you get 6.8km/li, which is more or less a figure you'll get if you do a self computation.

sir, i understand that the figure 0.5 is just a marginal error, i'm just stressing that from my actual experience, the percentage difference is quite big considering that the meter reads 10 km/li, but my computation gives me 12 ~ 13 km/li, meaning my actual consumption has a percentage difference or should i say percentage change, of 20% ~ 30% from our baseline reference of 10 km/li.

sir, ang observation ko sa unit ko 0.5 marginal error din actaual against the meter, automatic stop sa pump ang pinagagawa ko every time i fill up. Another observation ko, mas fuel efficient kong laging full tank, pag nasa 3/4 na ung level, fill up na uli ako.

city drive ko nasa 8k/li ang long drive nasa 13k/li ..... kahit anong bait ko mag drive gnun talaga.... Innova E

compared to my previous revo na city drive 6k/li long drive 11k/li....revo DLX

puedeng ECU nga problems nung ibang INNOVas noh?.. gagawin richer yung mixture para di mag choke sa umaga na malamig yung engine, malamig ung hangin.

ksi more fuel is needed pag malaki ang voulme nang air para sakto yung 14.7:1 na air/fuel mixture.... pag mas marami air = lean, pag marami fuel=rich

*larshell sir, what year yung innova mo?

ser id, paano mo nasabing mas fuel efficient ang full tank... pwede po bang paki-esplika para naman matularan ito kahit walang pang-full tank.hehehe

Sir, Kasi pag maintain ko yung level na 3/4 - full tank. average consumption ko 11.7 kms per liter , pero pag umabot ako sa 1/4 or mas mababa dun ang level 10.5 kms per liter lang . combined yan ng city and highway. May blend nga pala ako ng bioactiv ,250 ml per 1/4 load. after 1000k pms ko start na ako nagblend. I tried 80-85 kph sa highway umabot ako ng 16 kms/liter. I tried it from Lipa City - Sto. Tomas star tollway. btw i am using petron.

Hindi ba mas mabigat/mas hirap ang auto kapag full tank?
