Congratulations on your marriage; Welcome to Masoom club now
So your Khyber also went in your Baraat too. Masha Allah.
Was waiting for these updates since long.

Average is too low and this dramatic sudden decrease is leading towards the main culprit; Carburettor.

Go to Abdul Rehman Carburetor specialist at Tariq Road and get Carburetor fully overhauled.

Rusty tank, poor fuel lines are secondary but of course, they needs to be in optimal condition too.

For alternator issue, you can check with Abdul Malik or similar name for Alternator shop at 13-D traffic signal near Practical center for 2nd opinion after Maani.

@brownrose78 answered your question

[mustansir44]

JazakAllah! Yes my Khyber and Liana both went into Baraat.

I am replacing fuel tanks and lines in few days also I have ordered Japanese Carburetor kit and will talk to Abdul Rehman regarding carburetor.

Then I will go to Mani for Alternator service as a worker from Abdul Malik bhai's said your alternator is ok after listening to our problem.

Replaced Fuel Tank and Filter:

How much the new tank costed?

[nnabeel]

Make sure to seal the marked area # 1

pls also clean and reinstall the one way air breather than goes in the clip marked 2

[mustansir44]

JazakAllah.

1. Rubber gasket was checked and reinstalled with all screws and even pressure
2. Air breather was also and checked and cleaned with light air pressure before re-installation but top metallic strip from previous fuel tank was destroyed in process of detaching the filter that is why it is now connected with wire on new fuel tank

[mustansir44]

It costed me 5000 pkr but I would quality is ok

[mustansir44]

yes considering the prices. Also, I checked the fuel filter while changing to new one and observed huge amount of debris inside it and I suspect it is tuning out carburetor setting.

Do share performance and quality of your Industrial grade coolant and how is your Khyber/Swift A/C performing now?

Have you been to Abdul Rehman Carburettor, Tariq road or not yet?

[mustansir44]

Sorry, forgot to take pictures of cars radiator. It has been now 6 months and not a single drop of coolant was poured either in reserve bottle or radiator Alhumdulillah and car is not heating up even in blistering heat with and without AC. We use AC a lot nowadays, even when car is idling because of intense heat. Below are some pictures taken on 24 June 2022:

Of course, they can do if people like you can guide, aware and little educate them about importance of it.

[aziz.rehan]

Which coolant was used bro?

[mustansir44]

Another New Update and a question too:

Recently, I bought Castrol Radicool Premix SF 50/50 Coolant for Khyber. Now with a working heat gauge, I proceeded to operation "Cooling System".

Step 1) Firstly, I poured ABRO Radiator flush in the System and drove around 20-50 km to flush and clean Cooling System:
