Hello everyone.
I'm new to this page,.
I'm a mauritian and i cant write english well,.
I just needed some help from you guys,.
I have a toyota 4age silvertop,.my problem is high fuel consumption,i recently swap this engine on my corolla KE 72 wagon to pickup conversion,and i'm having much trouble with the engine..
Earlier,i installed 2" straight pipe on the vehicle,with no resonator,nor catalytic,and the idle sounded rough,like rotary engine,.
Later i changed back to only a silencer at the end,
But still having rough idling
Black smoke and a having smell like unburnt fuel coming out of the exhaust,
In the begining,i ran on stock engine,but later i tried to disconect the air flow meter,and not having much diference on engine behaviour,so i remove the intake box and let it run on the ITBs like blacktop,.
The engine runs well without the air flow meter,but the fuel consumption is still high..
Can you guys help
Thanks

Firstly, welcome to ZTH forum....

With faulty or no AFM, the ECU must be fueling maximum all the while, that is why high FC and plenty of soot and carbon....

But the fact is,even earlier with the AFM on,the sparks plugs used to be balck in colour when removed,..
And when i run the car,when i pressed the accelerator pedal,it goes on smoothly,but when i release the pedal slowly,the car like jumps a little faster for a second and then decelerate.

yOU NEED the AFM otherwise the engine wont know how much air its getting. Your AFM could be faulty.

Look at page FI-94, take out your multimeter with continuity measurement and measure the pins as indicated. Note you may have a different set of values, becuase this is for the 7M engine, but you will get an idea if some pins arent giving out any readings.
Yaa thanks,but i dont have the multimeter for the moment,as soon as i get it i will check the continuity,.

I was wondering,if my injectors are stuck open,would it run a rough idling and when reving it runs good?
