does anyone know the average fuel consumption for the 1.3 petrol 2E motor! Toyota didn't keep fuel data records until 2000 apparently. It is the carby type.

Should be able to get 7litres/100km highway driving. 40mpg in the old school. Around 8 litres/100km about town.

Thanks for that.I will have to get it tuned as it is using around 9-10/100, which is surprising since it has only done 115k and has been regularly serviced.

that doesnt surprise me - they are carbed so it depends a lot on your right foot and how you use it

I've found them heavier on fuel than the injected 1.6

I had an older liftback EE80 with the 2E carb, NZ new, it was probably a bit lighter than OP's later model, however my nz new AE82 gt hatch is even better on fuel with the injected 4AGE. Have got as low as 6.1litres/100km Auckland to Napier.

are the 100 series still using the crappy SU style carb! there is an auxilary air valve which leaks causing them to be hard to start when warm, give a poor idle and run rich at all times.

The 2E's have a terrible carb, so there's a good chance that it's had it.We were getting 15km/l and better in the two EE90 Corolla's we had as run arounds.Might be worth finding and trying out a random used carb!

I'll get the autoleccie to test it first then if needed maybe price a recon carb.

Yeah as far as I knew the NZ new ones came with a standard venturi type carb rather than the slide/SU type.
