200-250k per tank?

[Jonno]

Guys,

Was just wondering if this was anywhere near close to what other efi202's get?

Cos it's killing me ATM..80-90 bucks a tank

[pjdm1980]

That's about what I was getting in my EFI Berlina wagon.
Should ad that was city driving.

[Jonno]

Ok sweet
I was worried that their was a problem and I was just ignoring it
Thanks mate

hey sup jonnoo it brandon from calaisturbo lol... fancy seeing you here u remeber me?

[Ando2694]

I get 400-450 from my tank

[the_boozer]

Its drinking I get around 400 mostly driving around the shitty.

[vkberlina]

its thirsty i get 12-15l per 100km with my 5l trip-city driving

[GothicKidd]

Took this thing on a cruise up the coast couple of weeks ago - I couldn't bloody believe it. On three consecutive stretches of the Hume Highway, from Shepparton across the border and through the Golbourn Valley, up past Sydney this thing AVERAGED:

11.4 litres per hundred over 329km
11.8 litres per hundred over 285km
10.9 litres per hundred over 413km

using combined readings of miles on the odometer and GPS readings of distance travelled, against complete click-stop fills at service stations.

Unbelievable. On the return stretch from Sydney to Melbourne I stopped ONCE for fuel. This thing is incredible for a carby 202

Go figure? :P - and thats coming from a dinosaur..

The Injected 202s werent very good on fuel but it seems abit much, dunno where you would start to try and fix that though, afm maybe?

My Carby 202 was terrific on the highway, i got 8l per 100km going to sydney and 7.5 coming home, around town it was always 13.5l per 100 regardless how you drove.

[Unbreakable]

I get around 300 - 350km's a tank in my VH.

[Jonno]

My afm is brand new

Thanks for the replys. I got no idea where to start

I think their might be a leak.
Their was when I purchased it but we fixed that

Sometimes I get a fuel smell in the cabin but its usually just after I fill up

You may need to tune your afm. We used to do street tunes with leaded fuel cant with unleaded. Under the black cover on top you need to adjust the gear inside on a dyno to set your mixtures

i think mine is supposed to be running on Leaded but i dont know how to tell it doesnt have a cat thats what made me think it was leaded (appently leaded blocks the cats)

[VK SL 3800]

Its a leaded car man, VL were the first to go unleaded.

[Jonno]

i thought they changed them halfway thru 84. or in 85.

[Monster-VZ]

get it checked out get it dynoed and might be able to stop it sucking juice

[VK SL 3800]

i thought they changed them halfway thru 84. or in 85.

Nah they were all leaded, The new laws were introduced in 86 hence why Vl's got the RB30, if they could have holden would have kept the 202 but it was just to old and expensive to redesign to meet the new emissions.

[Mad84VK]

i know this is probably a stupid question but what is an AFM. Also i was getting the fuel smell too, so i dropped my tank out and all the fuel vapor leads where off. so it was filling the boot with fumes and then into the cabin.
i would show you photos of what i did but i know know how to get rid of the current uploads... :\

[Jonno]

Afm= air flow meter measures the amount of air going in to add fuel accordingly


I think that's right lol

[vkberlina]

Ok guys 86 they went leaded only

Reason why we could do a street tune on them with leaded fuel you could keep leaning up a car running rich till on a trip you would see the inside of the tail pipe change from a black soot colour to a grey colour, with the VK EFI AFM just clicking the gear a click at a time till you got it right.
Better way to do it now is on a dyno with an O2 sensor shoved up the tailpipe and measuring the Air/Fuel ratio.
So on a dyno you can tweak the timing and adjust themixtures via the gear in the air flow meter, make sure your temp sensor for the EFI is working correctly, new plugs, rotor button & dizzy cap, make sure your leads are good. Get a full tank of BP 98 and see what they can do.


I will post a pic of inside the AFM later when I find one

Dont you mean unleaded?

[TY318]

yeh i put 50 bucks in and just driving to work n back everyday and maybe go see a mate that lives down the road i got 4 days out of 50 bucks and from my house to works its like 7 or 8km my speedo stopped working so i cant record how much one tank gives me

[Jonno]

Should I put a lead additive in it then?
I've alwase ran it on premium..

Temp gauge wires were broken when I got it so I'm running an aftermarket temp gauge

[vkberlina]

Dont you mean unleaded?

whoopsie yeah I forgot an UN :P UNLEADED THAT WAS

no lead additive required read my posts/rants re what fuel to use

When I say temp sender I dont mean your guage one, I mean the one in the side of the head of the 202 with a blue fuel injector plug on it.

Also heres a pic of under the cap of the AFM

basically the flap inside is spring loaded, spring is under tension, turning the gear increases or reduces tension allowing more air etc in altering the measurement given to the ecu, simple
Deeper still, different stages of the movement send different signals out these can be altered with resistors, you will see a contact off the flap. also you can set the start or 0 point of the flap also. if you get to this stage your better off going to a different ECU, which wasnt available when it was done this way.

[Jonno]

im not confidant in playing with it myself

ill get it to untra tune or something and get them to have a play
