  • So today we are going to find out the bike carb Toyota MR2 aw11 4age mpg! In other words we are going to find out exactly how much the MPG worsens when you do a bike carb conversion on a car engine!
    So how do we do it? We remember that road trip I took just 2 days ago? That was just the opprtunity needed to collect some valuable data on the MPG of the bike carb 4AGE.
    When I started out that road trip I filled up my gas tank all the way to it's maximum capacity and recorded the number on my odometer. I then went on the road trip, and drove the mr2 until I depleted about half of the gas tank. I then went to a gas station again and filled up the gas tank all the way to the top again. I recorded the number on my odometer again and I recorded the number of liters of fuel I managed to fit into my gas tank.
    This gave me the distance I traveled and the exact amount of fuel the engine consumed during that distance. This enabled me to calculate my fuel consumption in liters / 100 km, which I can easily turn into MPG.
    And here's something even better. I actually drove this same route with my stock 4age rebuild 2 years ago and recorded the MPG back then as well so we can compare the bike carb mpg vs the stock 4age mpg. Hip hip.....

    10,5l/100km is quite nice result, not that much really for pretty agressive driving. As for an 1.6l engine it's nice result for that gain of power.

    I built only two engines in my short life, a 1330cc A series engine for my mini and an M10B18 for my E30. My mini got better MPG after building, I went from 9.4:1 go 11:1 CR and from 244° cam to 268° so still fairly reasonable. The M10 engine also did better, with higher CR too and 286° cam, as well as better tuned advance. Indeed, when driving you need less throttle for the same power and the higher CR, and tighter timing makes for better MPG, better noise and better power when needed ;)

    Nice numbers! My moms automatic Golf does around 9l/100km when driving like a (grand)ma so its not that bad.
    Another thing I do to keep the numbers right is to fill the tank at the same pump.
    Most of them here are at an angle, so some of the pumps don't let you to fill the tank all the way due to some trapped air in the tank.
    Once time i had 5,5l/100km and a pump later I had 8l/100km when mostly it is around 6,8l/100km.

I have a supercharged coyote mustang, that rarely leaves the garage because it eats tires (4th set of tires in 17k miles), and I drive it like a grandma 90% of the time... that last 10% is why I own that car though...

    At the beginning of last July, I did another round trip from Vancouver Canada to Bay Area California with my Toyota Corolla (purchased brand new in May of 2006).
    This is common North American model with 1.8 Liter 1ZZ-FE engine and not that common 5-speed manual transaxle and 164 036 km on the odometer.
    I did 3 565.9 Kilometers (2 213.5 Miles). For the whole trip, I used 219.2 Liters or 57.9 Gallons of Regular Unleaded fuel. My total fuel consumption was 6.155 L/100 km or 38.2 MPG US.
    It was very hot during my trip so I used the air conditioner most of the time. I'm going again to California at the end of September and I'm expecting even better fuel consumption, below 6 L/100 km (40 MPG U.S.).
    Prior to my trip, I made 1566.8 kilometers since I did last oil and oil filter change. When I came home I replaced oil right away. That was 5 132.7 km (3190 Miles) altogether and engine consumed only 100 Milliliters of oil.

No power windows or locks. Had to have a potent stereo system though...tunes are mandatory!

    Hey if you want power you def lose your MPG.
    Stock 4AGE 16V Blue top have around 112 to 118 crank horsepower.
    With your bike carb and cams, you gain more top end and now the engine is not restricted of air on the top end and pull more power thru the rev range.
    An un restricted exhaust will net more horsepower but your ears will be deaf from all the exhaust noise.
    Still impressive for an almost 26 year old engine to have that decent MPG.

      These are not the only upgrades in the engine. It's 1.8 with ported head, biggest possible valves, and higher compression ratio. The camshaft is 316 degrees. It's still on the stock exhaust headers, which restrict power, but I can say about 120 hp. You can message me in Facebook.

It has twin cylinder running off one carb. Part 16100-KB4-672. All I want is a NEW carb that works and gets me from A to B. Is there a conversion algorithm like i saw for cars?

    Love your videos, and all the info. I have a question for you. I have a 1990 4age small port I'm thinking of hanging a set of bike carbs on, my question to you is: was it as simple as buying the bike carb set up from danst (along with a nodiz) and turning the key. Our did you struggle with adjustments? I guess I have two questions: and in hind sight would you do the throttle bodies instead? Your thoughts are greatly appreciated, as you have put countless hours in perfecting this engine. Thanks

    • @d4a
      @d4a  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The reason why I made all my videos is precisely to answer questions like that. I have a video on absolutely everything I did in the process that was relevant. From unboxing danst parts, the fuel supply, balancing the carbs, ignition maps, jetting, carb cleaning, troubleshooting. I even made videos with quizzes in them to help you decide whether you should or shouldn't do a bike carb conversion, along with my thoughts on the matter. So really, it's all in there. It will take you two minutes browsing through my videos to find it all.

      Well it's either stuck in traffic or moving out. No real in between. Now a 2.5l NA Fusion , returned 26.5 at it's worst same driving style, was faster, way more responsive and fun to throw around. If you have any Fusion/Mondeo put it in S it will get better gas mileage and be ready, otherwise they feel unnaturally slow due to drive by wire holding everything back. Smaller engine does not automatically mean better fuel economy. No nothing anti-car people should have nothing to do with making cars or engines. Their assumptions make things worse.
