My 2001 3 litre turbo Hilux Dual Cab 1 KZTE is currently using 14 litres per 100 Klm (less than 20 mpg) empty without towing. I have had the EFI checked by the local Toyota dealer which provided no answers. The diesel specialist said that there is nothing they can do as there is no adjustment on the EFI models and it would be unlikely that the injectors would require servicing. The vehicle has travelled 90,000 klm.
Has any body experienced similar economy from the same vehicle and did they have any success improving?
I have heard of an after market EFi device called a Tunit which is supposed to improve performance up to 20 %. Has anyone had experience with these devices and if so, did it improve the economy?
Any replies on the above would be much appreciated.
