1kz-te fuel consumption (1 Viewer)

[Brayden Holden]

Hi there acouple of days ago I brought a 2004 Toyota Hilux double cab with 31’s and a tjm winch bar and winch. I have given it oil and filters change also new air filter. The problem is I have worked the fuel consumption out to be 16leters- 100km which I think is terriable and this is trying to drive as conservitave as possiable, dose anyone own one of there and please tell me this is not how they are meant to be. Cheers

Hello,
I have a 1kz-te in a kzj78 1995 prado. I live in the mountains of Alberta and have only had the truck for about 6 months. But I average around 14l/100km and that is driving a road that has about 400m vertical gain over 20km to get to work. I was getting close to 15l/100km and then changed my fuel filter and got back about 1l/100. Yours is terrible. What are you using for filters? OEM? New fuel filter? oiled washable filter vs oem paper? Are you running any injector cleaner regularly in your diesel? How many km's on the motor? Injectors been replaced?

Cheers!
