1993 V6 Surf running rich

Postby Kezza » Sun Apr 07, 2013 6:35 pm

I recently had to put a new air flow meter in my surf and now the truck is running super rich, I have just done 115km and used half a tank of petrol when I used to get about 175km per half... any ideas whats going on ?

Took it to Motorworks today and they managed to track it to a short in the air flow meter so have picked up another which I'll chuck in tomorrow morning and see how we go... I managed a whole 200km to a tank of fuel, a new personal best
