yer my tank goes empty, theres no leaks I use all my fuel up.

I havnt checked the k's But i know its well under 200 on a full tank.

it used to be 400 and that would last a while.

wat mods have u done?? i.e intake/ air filter...
cos if u recently got a new intake/air filter u might hav forgotten to connect the air sensor again... therefore car doesnt know how much air is going in and will make it run rich... thats just an example...

Hmm I have done a air pod...But it was running fine with it on...Plus me and a Mate checked out the air flow with some sensor(not sure) and it seemed fine..

EGO sensor in the exhaust manifold is polluted/contaminated, need to replace it($60 or so)
OR
Check your fuel filter which is located on the passenger side of the fuel tank, behind the plastic cover. Z337 from memory... and replace your spark plugs too!

Disconnect the battery for a few minutes to reset the carby ECU
