Al Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 same problem as me mate! my car EATS petrol! 1.4i too £10 = 50 miles! £20 = 105 miles my record was 64 miles to a £10 my exhaust pops on the way down, it spits fuel out the back slightly, so i dont know if my ECU needs remapped. ..........spits fuel out!!! I think you mean water?? That's normal. Fuel would not spit out the exhaust,especially as a liquid that's been through the combustion chamber. Al.

Colin Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 my exhaust pops on the way down Nah mate, thats cause your ragging your motor rally style to get that exhaust pop when you down shift round corners! Mind you, sounds like theres somethnig really wrong with your motor's guys, would you have huge ICE installs or anythnig like that, or maybe a fat girlfriend you don't wanna own up too.................?

Redsquirrel Posted March 9, 2003 Author Share Posted March 9, 2003 i have an ice install, it probaly weighs the weight of a small person, but surely that wouldnt do it, considering im sure the car used the same amount of petrol when the ice wasnt in it.
