YOUR ENGINE MIGHT BE WEAK THEREBY REQUIRING ALOT OF FUEL TO COMPENSATE FOR WEAK COMPRESSION.
HOWEVER, IS IT ONLY THE AIR FLOW METER FAULT THAT WAS STORED?
CAN YOU CONFIRM THE O2 SENSORS ARE STILL GOOD?
WHATS THE CURRENT STATE OF YOUR COOLING SYSTEM? IS IT STILL WORKING AS IT SHOULD, THERMOSTAT STILL PRESENT OR ABSENT?
FANS RUNNING DIRECTLY?
ALSO IS IT ALL THE PLUGS THAT ARE BLACK OR JUST SOME?

Oga how can you just change engine when the engine did not knock, or crack.
OP pls look for some one that can work with live data, to fix your car, it might actually be a wiring problem, power, ground, or signal line to the sensor might be open or short. If you need one you can hit me up,

fault that came out from the reading was airflow meter and cathalics sensor..
I'm just looking for how to stop the plugs from getting black before getting the cathalics fixed.
I don't think the engine is weak because I use acc sometimes but I've stopped using it.
thermostat is present because I complained to my mechanic about hard start in the morning sometimes. he unplugged the thermostat and fixed it back. pls I just bought it 2 weeks ago

engine is weak and it's lacking compression despite the fact that your not seeing visible smoke. If you dnt change the engine u will be running in circles and making expensive repairs without results

Ok.... Now its getting clearer.
You bought the car 2weeks ago or the thermostat?

This engine looks like the one on my former Kia Shuma. It has no distributor (ECU does that).

I don't think it has distributor... is it the same thing?
one electrician said it's electrical problem. but he is far...plus the lockdown.

one èlectrician just confirmed that there's too much current going to the injectors which is coming from the brain box. the problem is how to step down the flow of current. the car brain box has been tested ok. I need help please

Sell the car to me.Is it automatic?
