Gidday!
I'm a newbie here, and have been lurking for about a month or so, recently got my 98 GLS Lancer (seems to be NZ name for CE).
Been doing some general maintenance on it which has fixed some things but i get AWFUL fuel consumption.
I'm getting ~200kms a tank (conservative) which is about 5km/L. (I got better fuel consumption on my 87 Honda City, and that thing practically didn't have a head gasket)
Have been researching what I can and read that it might be the auto-choke but I can't see much in it and right now can't figure out where the auto-choke is....
I'll eventually be putting the EFI 1.8 in it but right now im getting kicked in the ass by gas costs .
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
My next plan is to pull off the carby, take it apart, and clean it, but if it's not going to make a difference it might not be worth it, so figured i'd ask for help, any pushes in the right direction would be awesome.
