Yeah true, sounds expensive. Already spent a tonne on this damn thing. But I suppose it has to be done. Can mechanics run tests and things like that to know for sure if the injectors are buggered? I suppose my other question is can a catch can and blocking the egr cause for higher fuel consumption too? And the catch cans already there. Shouldn’t I just leave it now? Cheers for the help by the way guys. I clearly know nothing about cars ✌🏿

I have a 2011 automatic hilux sr with 200000km on the clock. It has a long range fuel tank making the total fuel 145L. However I only get around 800km from one tank (and that’s being generous) that works out to be about 18L/100km!! Just wondering if anyone would have any ideas for me as it’s becoming a costly exersize to go anywhere. I have a fair bit of weight on the vehicle (steel tray with canopy and drawers plus tools, arb bull bar with side rails, winch, the long range tank, bf Goodrich at tyres) but I still find this to be ridiculous. It used to go into limp mode all the time whenever it was working hard. Turned out the intake manifold was all carbonned up so I had it cleaned, had a catch can put in and blanked the egr. And it still did it once after that process but hasn’t done it again since. I don’t believe this has anything to do with it because it was shocking before all that anyway. I was getting around 900km per tank before that and that was with no tray or weight in the back. Just an empty tub. Still ridiculous to me. Any idea would be seriously great! Cheers guys and girls 👍🏿
