PROBLEMS WITH SINGLE-POINT CARBURETOR Published by manual-mecanica
Hello, can you help me? I have a 1993 Suzuki Swift 1.3 and I'm having problems with the single-point carburetor. I need to know if I can adapt another model and which one it would be.

Thank you.

Luis, is your vehicle a single-point injection or carbureted engine, meaning it has a central injector? Why do you want to change it? What problem does your vehicle have?

Hi, thanks for replying.
It has a central injector and there's no one here who can fix it. It runs very rich, smokes like a diesel, is a gas guzzler, and runs rough.
I don't know what to do because if I wanted to sell it, I couldn't due to the excessive smoke.

Please try to help me; I know a little about mechanics.

Bye, thanks.

If it has a carburetor, reduce the jet size, check the throttle shaft, check the base and needle valve, adjust the float, have you checked the valve seals and rings? If it's a single-point injection system, check the sensors (oxygen, airflow, throttle position sensor), verify the fuel pump pressure and filter, check the ignition coil, high-tension lead and spark plugs, as well as the spark advance and valve clearance

It seems to me that it's a problem with either the timing or the valve adjustment, but it's a bit complicated because the fault is a little difficult to pinpoint. It happened to me in a Fiat Fiorino, and it was due to the valve adjustment. In another similar case, with black smoke and everything, but in a Renault Twingo, it was the timing or valve clearance. When there's a lot of smoke and it's affecting the fuel, it's unlikely to be the sensors, but it's always a good idea to run a scan to rule things out. It also happened to me with a Fiat Punto, and the problem was the central injector not sealing properly. Try a simple test first to rule out a couple of things: remove the air filter cover and turn the ignition on. Fuel shouldn't pass to the throttle body until you start the engine. If it does, check the injector seal. It could be that simple. Good luck, and let us know. If after you've tried everything nothing works, put a Peugeot mechanical carburetor on it, haha. Nothing, my friend.
