              • Hi everyone,
                Just bought a 08 120 D4D and I'm having trouble understanding ( my first 4x4 and my first diesel)
                I tried to run the tank down to see when the warning light would come but I panicked and filled it up, it was showing almost empty but it only took 117 litres for a total of 818km , all the mileage was around town.....can someone please tell me....the gauge was almost on empty no warning light was showing and it only took 117 lt does that mean that I still had 63 Lt to go? is that normal or should I get the tank or the sender checked? I'll be doing the Big Lap from July and it is very important that I understand how the Prado Diesel dual tank works, any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.
                Cheers

                    • Description 08 GXL 1KD Manual, 267,000kms
                      ENGINE...3.0L 1KD, stock with a reusable air filter by BMC?

                      TRANSMISSION.......6spd Man

                      TYRE SIZE.........265x65x17 (stock size) maxxis razr AT, on since 228,000kms

                      ROOF RACKS ETC... Kings full length rack, xtm 2x2.5 awning. Arb deluxe bar

                      ANYTHING WHICH MAY AFFECT FUEL FIGURES........ Nothing other than above. No dual battery yet

                      Based on figures before Dyno tune, I track everything with an app meticulously

                      COMBINED FUEL CONSUMPTION.... 11.26avg over 38,000kms. Best 11.11, worst 12.48

                      Will update this after a few weeks of having intake clean, tune and sorting out egr.

                      Edit: fuel consumption hasn't changed in the first fill up, but I was much more heavy footed with the extra power available, going easy this tank and we'll see if we can get it down, but very happy that I can get the extra power for the same consumption.

                      • Fuel economy and injector seals? My 2007 1KDJ 120 (5spd auto) has 250,000km on it and I'm now down to about 8l/100km from about 9l/100km 50,000km ago. Power remains excellent but a bit of smoke on heavy acceleration (e.g. stomping it to 3500rpm). Could the injector seals be a problem here? I had the injectors pulled at 150,000km and the spray pattern checked and the seals replaced. Wondering if I should do it again? I'd like to hold on to it for another 100,000km if possible.
