possible for u to check
1) Spark plug for signs of aging. 2) Spark plugs wire for signs of leakage. 3) Bad air filter 4) Tire pressure is sufficient at 30-32 psi 5) Low level of engine oil. |

There should be a round of timing belt change already, since 100,000km+ milleage.
And also check whether has clutch slippage or not. Anyway, short distance travel and often stop-go condition really do reduce FC alot. |

If there's white bluish smoke from ur exhaust, u need at least a top overhaul to solve problem. Possible valve seal damage. That's what happened to me 2 years ago. Got it overhauled 2 years ago. My full tank mileage is about 450km city driving and 550km for highway drive

when you know the problem, you may go to bawah pokok mechanic, but for such big problem, i really suggest to go to proper service center. extra charge, but at least they diagnose the issue properly with proper equipment.

My fuel consumption is getting better. RM70 = 430KM, previously 380KM, then dropped to 350KM, then 310KM, LOL!
Drive slow 80 - 90km/h. Or just 60 km/h when its raining heavily on highway. No more tarik on highway, only tarik when need to overtake, around 5 times only. 1.3 (m) satria here. Should be able to get 450KM next time. 450KM for RM70 is fair. This post has been edited by zeist: Apr 15 2007, 06:46 PM |

Plugs, some cheap normal NGK plugs. I'm using Castrol Magnatec 10/40.
Change to 4-2-1 extractor + bullet and s-flow muffler. Piping stock standard. Test twice already. RM70 can get around 430KM. I'm sure I'm able to get 450KM. If I travel only on highways, let say from KL to Penang. Should be able to get 500 - 550KM. Only 80KM/H speed. The 430KM is both highway and city driving. |
