Tell him to get it fixed.
or buy the FSM and do what it tells.
run the tests, on the system.
2.0 L RF I4 (diesel
this is a MAZDA engine. based off their FE.
so you can either buy the Suzuki fsm and read about it or
read up on the mazda TDI controls.
id check compression first. (make sure engine block is ok)
then work controls.

quote:
One of Mazda's more popular diesel engines, it was also available with a pressure wave supercharger called Comprex.

SOURCE: hi i have a 2000grand vitara that has fuel problems useing to much

Fuel usage is somewhat subjective on your part,
more of a guess

As a vehicle gets older the mileage will go down some
but not much

Only thing you can do is basic preventative maintenance

That is something you should have decades of experience
with and if you have no log book for all you vehicles then you
really do have the interest

Spark plugs every 3 years along with gas & air filter

O2 Sensors start to slow down around 100,000 miles &
also fail
They are the only or most important part to fuel injection
adjustment ,so replace the front upstream ones

Also you could have a failing & partially clogged exhaust
converter.
That not only causes a restriction but also effects the O2
Sensor feed back to the computer for fuel trim

SUZUKI SUV Grand Vitara diesel glow light on and there is loss of power

no year told , nor country.
sold all over earth with lots of different engines,
my guess in Europe
1988 to1998.
or
1999 t0 2005
2.0 L RF/RFM I4 turbo-diesel
2.0 L RHW/RHZ I4 turbo-diesel
2005 to 014

1.9 L F9Q I4 turbo-diesel
2015 up
1.6 L D16AA DDiS I4-TD

no telling year, country , and which diesel is here, makes answers
10x more hard. so now I go GENERIC and vague.

  1. bad fuel, now filters are bad. , water in fuel or worse./
  2. clogged air filter.
  3. injectors clogged.
  4. newer diesels, have EFI sensors that can be bad.
  5. injection pump bad or messed with and fails.
  6. engine compression fails. (a test)
  7. tank lift pump bad,
  8. and more but no engine or year told.

2001 2lt grand vitara. When engine is hot it sometimes will not start until engine has cooled. Also very lumpy if it does start, any ideas please

lumpy is misfiring. that be it.
ever do a tuneup this decade? even spark plugs?
the above implies it runs great cold. and running long distances
but if parked it has what is called in the business, heat soak, hot restart failure.
ever use scan tool. and plug it in (after a tune up) and see if there are
DTC errors.
and when wont start, TRY WOT , that is , wide open throttle cranking
per opr. guide, this clears flooding. does this help. it?
did you examine spark tips to see if fuel soaked (flooded, or jet black)????? check for spark , yet?
when dead.
lots more, ....

I have an toyota 2c-turbo used disel engine fitted in my jeep.It is running without turbo pump . Its mileage is just 13kms/ltr . How it's mileage can be increased and up to what level?

Hi and welcome to Fixya!

If you want to increase the mileage I strongly suggest that you have the engine calibrated. Calibration can increase engine performance and mileage.

Diesel pump

if memmory serves me correct

the three wires from old pump
power
ground
and glo rod power

more than likely i would say upgrade your diesel pump to the eight wire configuration you really want to use what is mandated for the vehicle or you can or will have trouble in the future
