Re: vitara 1.6 spi, tips for improving fuel consumption

Re: tips for improving fuel consumption

Can turn front shafts by hand no problom and they lock unlock perfect, fluids I havnt replaced but think they were done before as both diff oils look fresh. Dizzy cap isnt too bad, cleaned of the corrosion and made no difference :(
