hi Guys
i noticed my consumption increased with the petrol price what should i check in order to get it down again
im getting about 380kms off 50litres
Fuel Consumption very high
Thats kinda normal bud.
I just got 440km on a tank. And I drove like a granny...
Get a VEMS, that gets your car up to about 13km/L
Eish bru my consuption was on 10l\100kms before ek se
my car is nog standard
Yeah I drive like a granny all the time and get 440Km/tank.
If your car is stockish you should be able to get 10km/l or so.
Get a VEMS, that gets your car up to about 13km/L
How???
Dont have a clue. it just does.
A buddy of mine has got that on his sx and he gets that.
With my standard exhaust I used to get 10km/L with the new one I just get 440km/tank
Clean your air filter, clean your AFM, put new plugs in, check your oil, check your turbo, check your injectors, check your timing, check your boost pipes!
Pretty much check everything.
(is there any stutter or fuel cut when you boot it? does is backfire a lot?)
nope everythings normall has a new filter new plugs check oil and boot pipes alles lyk all right 😛
and did you haul ass in the car the last few days?
No Meneer my plak is hoog maar kroon is laag 😂
i can smell on the exhaust fumes the car isnt burning lekker even at normall operating Temp
Ha ha!
Well then the only thing would be to put it on the duno and check the A/F ratios. Then you would have a more clear idea of what it is!
Go to Faheem at Dynotech. He will sort you out. I want to go there asap(meaning next week monday) so he can tune my car.
Hanco, VEMS is a wideband lambda meter. It is impossible to make you get 13km/l. It doesnt alter the ECU in any way.
Damn Gary dont kill me! I just said what I saw. And he is running that and a tuner whos name I wont say on the forum tuned it for him and he gets 13km/L.
If you dont believe me ask himself. You can PM me for details!
ill call him
Cool stuff man!

VEMS = Versatile Engine Management Systems

I didnt take your head by any means. I have a wideband meter, much like the VEMS and it doesnt make you get 13km/l. I have spent the last year trying to get a better fuel consuption and the best I can get is 9km/l.

You tjop! that meants the TUNE have him 13km/l not the VEMS, the VEMS enabled him to tune the car better 😛
Also, some ECU's have place for a wideband that allow the ECU to moitor and change fuelling to get the best mixture out.
Ok tjop,
TUNE it without the VEMS!

Thats probably his best bet, but be careful not to melt a piston 😛

Sokar, I smark, straight to the point. That is what I was trying to say but didnt want to be harsh, but seems I came arcoss harsh anyway 😂 .
You dont have to TUNE with a VEMS, there are plenty wideband meter out there. Also do you have a standalone to allow you to TUNE the ECU??
when i got my blue sx in 2006 town driving get 300km off a tank (50 liters)
put in a walbro pump and was getting 350-400kms off a tank
car is stock except for a 63mm exhaust.
i hear of people getting 500 - 600km on a tank?
