| Let discuss and find out how that we can get the best fc.
I'm using wc auto.
I've discover something after i fill up full tank (RM 60) for my wc, driving from KL - Penang (around 300+-/km) only spent about RM 25 ahaha.. It seems that when the car in full tank the meter seems to be a bit slow to come down probally because of the presure in the tank i think.
Another thing i discoverd that when i fill up full tank let say that the meter shows till the end of the bar. I can get 200KM from the last bar to the second last bar! with consistant driving around 90,110,120 km/j. It continues until it reach the middle bar. Means that i can get 400KM. Ok now from the middle bar till empty.. i only can get another 150KM so total kilos were 550KM with RM60 per full tank.
My queries are.. why from the middle tank till empty i cannot get 400KM while from full till middle tank i can get? if u compare it with weight the lesser the petrol the light ur car will be. (F1 technique)
Another thing i tried to fill up RM 25 from empty and it goes right up to middle bar. After about 150-180Km then it will empty.
so from now i always make my wc full tank and further more i do use to fill it up at night around 9-10 hehe isi lambat2
so how yours? | |

| huh~ this is old topic in ZTH campro owner forum..
anyway, why you can fill full tank with rm60? your fuel still at middle? normally full tank need around rm80-90.
Before i mod my car, full tank rm90, i can get 550KM.. after add micro compressor, its add more 35-40KM.. this is what i already test with 3 tanks fuel.. drive constantly as long as my rpm not over 4k..
Now, after modded, and added FPR, i still can get 540KM with full tank.. already test with 1st tank.. now at the middle of 2nd tank..
some more, auto WC FC is higher than manual user.. cuz when you using 'D' even you stopped your car, the fuel still injecting.. unless you turn to 'N' when you stop.. normally when traffic jam or at traffic light..
my 2 cents~ | |

| ahaha i know this is an old topic but probally we can still discuss it if u have any solution on it.. like using magnet, micro compressor or anything else so in the end we know how to manage our money ahaha...
err i think those fella @ proton service center had install those magnet @ my oil filter it just like a ring plus summore i'm using zaptor + grounding normal driving gear N @ traffic light or waiting.
RM 60 ful tank means from empty bar to full bar. I know it can go as RM80-90 per full tank means that it go up after the full bar. A friend of mine using waja se fill up RM110 kut.. ahaha 2.0 nyer tank ka?
Plastic tank? emm is there some other way that we can diy make that tank cooler ahaha.. | |

so how yours? WAH! WC Auto - Full tank = RM60 can get 550km?! Fuiyoh! That is good! RM0.11 p/km! My full tank...i pump before RM115! Can get only 570km! RM0.20 p/km!!! Like my cousin's Accord 2.4litre!! I must change my driving style...or my WC FC got prob!!! Anyway, my car same thing la....when needle go below half tank...very fast my petrol finish and go empty! It is apparently like that with many Wajas. Some say is fuel pump prob, some say is the tank design...the bottom is curved in...some say other things! In the end...i also dont know why! Maybe...when we TT can discuss further! | |

| it a magnet item that plugged with the fuel pipe which is connected to the engine. I heard that the magnet will put the ions of the fuel in proper order hence the engine will use the fuel efficiently. I heard some of users' comments that this fuel magnet saver can save 10-15% of fuel consumption......in long term, i think you manage to save more................( I could be wrong). | |

| That sounds like a great item to get! However, any WC users feel the difference or see it?
How much did it cost you and where to get? | |

| you can get it from the accecories shops ......the cost of the magnet may around rm80 to rm 170........the higher you pay, the higher effects you will get.....
i will also add micro compressor as Tsunhien added......I heard it seems useful and increase your performance......brother's shop is selling it at RM 99.....but some brands also cost rm 300+........ | |

| Yah! Tshunhien did recommend that we get the Micro Compressor previously.
However, what brands you all use and recommend? How much it cost again?
Ppl told me last time that Micro Compressor does not help much! Waste money! However, both of you guys recommending it now! So i really confused!! haha! What are you all using and what difference you feel from it? | |

| Im forgot what brand of the micro Compressor that i added. But it is chrome in colour. It costs me around Rm 300+. It is useful, after I added the compressor, the engine takes lesser REV which it can reduce the tendency to the failure of the gearbox. Besides that, pickup will be slightly better. | |
