QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Oct 3 2011, 04:38 PM) i would assume they didnt clean the carb since they mentioned that they didnt do anything to it You may want to clean the carb., since it is pretty long ago...and mind elaborating on this "air leak device"?  Air leak device is like the surbo unit, but not all cars will benefit from it. Will be good if car is a guzzler, like my wife's Sonata III. Even though fuel injected, have to by pass the air flow sensor to cheat the ECU. I am getting better power and better FC. For carb., so far we found it worked well in the Iswara. Connection is between PCV valve and inlet manifold, T joint and air flow controlled by another device. There are also the air compressor thing but don't joint to vacuum hose of brake servo, which many people do.... |

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Oct 3 2011, 09:14 PM) surbo? or it was typo'd from turbo? Yes, it is surbo, I think is the brand name. Same as some other air leak device as they called it.personally im not too keen on modding the car. kinda want to keep it stock until i can change my car ^^; unless of course theres further information for me to read up, most importantly it is proven to improve performance/FC, and without side effects/drawbacks etc. Mine was DIY with my mechanic. Did in 2008....Read about it here.... http://forum.autoworld.com.my/index.php?showtopic=3788 |
