2.0 16v problems.

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine is running a 2.0 and hes having a few probs.

 

He can only get 30 to the gallon on the motorway which seems far too low and sometimes has problems getting the thing started.

 

Hes had it looked at and the guy reckoned it is a thermostat problem and therefore the choke is constantly on leading to overfuelling.

 

Can a valver guru advise on this or suggest any alternatives.

 

Cheers

Would be interested to know how much a new thermostat changes things as mine runs about 33mpg, though on one motorway trip once I got over 40, but I was so lightfooted it did actually hurt me!!

 

Averages about 33-34 though...
