u13turbo Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 my terrano is using like 16l per 100 kms, I've heard is should be using 10-12l per 100kms, mine use to blow abit of black smoke, so i wound the fuel down, now it only blows black smoke if i pulse the throttle, and it only comes out when the rpms get back to idle. Anyone know what the problem could be? I have checked the air intake, its clear, the exhaust is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not worry too much though as it leans out on highway trips. Maybe there is something amiss with it. but it gets me there n back.
