Hi guys,
I have a 3rz-fe hilux. As far as I know our engines have no oxygen/lambda sensor, EGR valves cant seem to find the MAF sensor only what appears to be a air temp sensor.
Anyway, a while back about 8k ago she started getting heavy on juice from 15l/100km to around 19l/100km for no apparent reason..
Checked many things, tyres, brakes, major service etc. Getting to the stage where I would like to take it and set it alight. I didnt ride it for a week and now its a real dog show, getting around 20l/100km and I used fresh fuel. It sort of feels like something is holding it back, underpowered too. The engine is bog standard, only mods are 31" tyres and a canopy. Friends of mine are getting around 13-14l/100km.
I believe it has a vacum sensor but I dont see how this can get clogged or break as every Toyota dealer I speak to has never replaced one????
I would be grateful to anyone who can give me some adivce.
