Why Does the Vehicle Consume More Fuel After Replacing the Timing Belt?
1 Answers
Vehicle consumes more fuel after replacing the timing belt because the timing position is not aligned. Here are the detailed reasons for increased fuel consumption: 1. Cause Details: If the position of the belt pulley is not correctly aligned during installation, delayed ignition timing will lead to increased fuel consumption and high temperature. The timing belt needs to be removed and reinstalled; otherwise, the vehicle may fail to start normally during ignition or idle. 2. Precautions: The vehicle engine's timing is adjusted to the optimal state when leaving the factory. If the timing is not aligned correctly during replacement, the ignition timing will change, the most direct result being incomplete combustion. It is recommended to have it replaced by professionals.
