2006 Corolla Consuming Too Much Fuel by Kaspar0v(m): 7:45pm On Dec 22, 2020
Please help.


Please what could be the problem?

Car will suddenly start to vibrate while on break and engine ON, I will change the 4 spark plugs, vibration will stop. But after a while, it will start vibrating again. It never vibrates during motion/acceleration.

And vibration always start when fuel always get near empty before refilling.

I have noticed

And when this happens, fuel usage is crazy high!

As if fuel is leaking or something.

Plz help

Ur fuel filter and pump are the culprits. There's a whole lot of dirt in ur fuel tank and as such wen ur fuel begins to get low ur filter begins to encounter dem. Since U already changed the plugs and d problem hasn't gone away, time to check on ur fuel pump

If that's correct after filling the tank, why does engine keep vibrate irregularly and consuming too much fuel?

D dirt has probably damaged ur pump.. There's no harm in having dem check dat.

Why does new spark plug resolve the issue temporarily then?

Some ppl offered advice but u kept countering them. Replacing parts with new parts don't guarantee solution. You meed to find the culprit.
1. As suggested, a clogged fuel filter amd pump can make the engine run lean thereby causing that.
2. A dirty throttle body also cam cause vibration while the brake is active.
3. Dirty injectors can cause the vibration e.g misfire which new plugs might fix only for a while.


Do not rule anything out. Get the car diagnosed right. Stop throwing parts.
