Evan G Posted September 8, 2012 Report Posted September 8, 2012 recently rebuilt 7mge with around 20 thou removed from the block and head. (compression should be around 10.5:1), ran it in by mildly thrashing it. But now have the problem with TERRIBLE fuel eco. my mate who was following me while i was giving it a boot said it was blowing black smoke all thru the rev range. 60L of 98 octance just got 300km. timing was set at the factory 8 degrees. but i could feel like it didnt want to pull nicely. therefore bumped it up to 15, went a little beter then laster bumped it up to 22! now it ʞ©$ɟing PULLS! heres a pic of the plug any ideas on what to check? o2 sensor. afm? tps? vac leaks?

Evan G Posted September 26, 2012 Author Report Posted September 26, 2012 sorted ages ago. BHG + water injected exhaust = faulty o2 sensor. Quote
RainWarriorDregs Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 (edited) Um, water injected exhaust? EDIT: Just did some research, that shit is interesting, goodbye the next 4 hours of my life. Edited September 26, 2012 by RainWarriorDregs Quote
