AoA!
Brothers, I need suggestion for solution of problem related to FX's consumption.
Recently I bought Suzuki FX 86 and overhauled its engine. Its still on run-in and I have driven it 300KM. I am very upset as it is giving only maximum 10KM in a liter. Its in patrol and I am using it in Islamabad.
Please suggest how can I increase its consumption.
@nauman, my mehran 2007 recently overhaul engine bcuz gas kit gone.... my mehran also give me 10 km per liter..... according to all mechanic this average is good..... u will run ur car on long route like motorway it will definatly gives u 15-16 km / liter
I have failed to understand how gaskit goes bad in these cast iron block
My mehroo 2007 use to give 14km/l in city/local use
The reason for low mileage on old engine is ppl never change pcv valve (breath pipe in mehran/fx) which result in a lot of slugh in engine
what's the point of keeping a mehran if it gives 10km/L.. A 3b diesel is known to give at least 8km/L in the city.. and an FJ40 costs around 3-4 lakh as well.. why not upgrade..
are complete the running, then get it tuned, a properly tuned fx does 13-14 in local and 16+ in long. Mehran too has a similar average, the efi ones though, they give a better average
Carburetor can be a pain at times
@saboor let me know, how i make my mehran fuel efficient ... then it gives me 12-13 km in city ??? mechanic says its okay 10 km /Liter

Thanks everyone for your responses.. Actually I was told that Suzuki FX will give around 14-15 KM in a liter with overhauled engine.
Should I replace PCV valve?
as far as i know, fx has a metal body pcv with a check ball inside,just spray carburetor cleaner in it with the engine running, you will have to rev the engine while you spray.
A mehran can easily do 13 in city, you need to find a carburetor expert
Well when i bought mehran it use to give me 9km/l i was quite worried about mileage and there quite noticeable rambling sound in car after gear oil change my car mileage improved alot keep theromostate vavle on its place and fan on it factory setting i.e automatic
Thanks for the suggestions, will try these totkas this weekend
can someone post the pic of PCV valve of Mehran/FX?
@saboor bhai, i m new driver.... let me know, which gear oil u prefer me in mehran then i will replace? also inform me about what is thermostate valve and how its work and make car fuel efficient ? my mechanic turn car fan into direct before it was autometic??
I got it changed from IG motor Suzuki's 3s oil was zic 75w85 theromostate valve ensure that car doesn't run dead cold you mechanic is very stupid person fan should always be automatic not direct
direct fan is not that bad. real culprit is no thermostat valve as it causes the car to run cold. btw in this scorching summer i would rather prefer to run fan on direct as it will keep temp to middle.
where is IG motor in Lahore ?? i will change PCV valve, Gear oil and make some adjustment with thermostate.
