Improve Fuel consumption rates!
« on: November 03, 2003, 12:07:42 AM »
Hello

Please advise. What are the different ways through which I can improve my miles per gallon/kilometers per litre. I have a feeling my suzuki is running less. I have a 1991 suzuki Escudo, with 1.6L engine. It moves only 8 km per liter on town and 10km per liter on highway. (Rfere to http://teaching-english-in-japan.net/conversion/liters) for liter and gallong conversions. At least what I changed a few months a go is the airfilter where it improved a bit in power and consumption. But can't I push it mor longer??

Please advise

That is the normal rate 20 MPG city and 24 MPG highway,
be happy, or use a motorcycle for less fuel consumption.

Oxygen sensor.  sometimes when they start to go, they are not bad enough for the computer to see them as bad and wont give you the check engine light.  Supposed to change every 30000 miles anyways.
