ady2k5 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Hello all.Just wondering if the Glanza V is running rich how will i know. When i had my previous car (Ford Fiesta 1.1) it ran rich for some time and i could tell this by the heavy fuel comsumption (50 miles to £10) and when i was going up hill the car would start to judder as if it was about to stall. This problem was solved by changing the lambda sensor.Are the signs similar in a Glanza V Turbo?When i idle my rev meter is normally between 0.75 revs to 1 rev, is that ok?Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shelly_star Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Mine seems to judder too when pulling off, same goes with my brothers SR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

shelly_star Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Glanza judders for me, only sometimes, SR gets it really bad when it just started up. My idling seems fine, dunno how many miles i get out of 10quid, but i get about 240miles full tank which is about 37quid of vpower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Does that sound ok or should it have gone higher. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
