G'day guys new here, have a question for you guys, a lot of the skizza drivers where I live are to snobby to talk to me, so the problem is I only get 277km to a tank on 98, I've replaced the fuel reg, oxy sensor, cleaned the AAC vavle, blew the lines, what els could be contributing to this?

Cheers, Aus.

Yeah like Mr NPC said, if you've checked the fuel side now check the ignition side.... Check plugs etc?

Make sure your AFM is clean too just to be safe, hows the car run in general? Rear bar covered in black goodness?

ecu, tune, how you drive, atmo bov

I am really surprised you didn't say it was clutch slip and try sell him an NPC :P (No offense OP, personal joke)

Haha, it crossed my mind.

How much smoke on boost? As in do you leave a trail behind you? Like Jim said, back bumper black?

Well something has to give, if the engine isnt running rich. Youve quoted about 20L/100km, being conservative. Which is a ridiculous amount for gentle driving as you claim.

Are the brakes stuck? Do the wheels move freely?

Wouldn't a vacuum leak stop it from running though?

I have a series 1 afm you can use if you are in sydney? I would check for vacuum leaks (spray carby cleaner around all joins and listen for idle change- only when cold, and be carefull not to spray the exhaust), get a consult and check if the 02 sensor is working properly, is it wired properly?, and swap the afm. Really you should get at least 100km per 1/4 tank driving sensibly. When you fill up after 260km, was the tank empty? Is it turbo?

    • So you're now accepting offers of 10% more than the cost of the turbo kit fitted?

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
