We all know to save fuel you need a smaller carburetor



I removed my carburetor Then filled the intake manifold with thick chain to brake up the fuel partcals and restrict the air and fuel flow from the carburetor to the manifold so your intake has to be less there is no chance of the chain it going into the system I refitted the carburetor I did this last week. I useto get + - 10 Km/1 Litre Now I get + - 15 Km / 1 Litre looks like it works



My car is a Hyundai Accent 1.3 XS



How ever the performance is not as good as it use to be . But my topend is still there . It takes a little longer to get there .



can any one tell me if this is good or bad



My name is Jim

Must be a Hyundai thing? :D

Yep ... any Subaru owner would have connected the thick chain to the rear of another vehicle travelling to roughly the desired destination then sat back and enjoyed the ride, especially whilst returning 0L/100Km (except for the drive through the last few streets!) Cheers
