Other shops offer to sell "remanufactured" injectors when in fact a high power ultrasonic cleaning will do the job. My Innova now runs quite fine.

mikrotechie what is the exact address of Motor Doctor in Antipolo? they do EGR cleaning also?

By the way, after my earlier report of fix by cleaning the injectors, the power was still low and I still experienced progressive power loss after a couple of months. The Final fix that seems to have brought back almost full power was cleaning fuel tank filter. It cost me P750 at a Shell gas station and now I'm quite happy with the performance of my Innova diesel. A friend as well as Toyota service recommended this fix. It worked!

What do you mean by fuel tank filter? ung buong fuel tank ba? parang wala naman fuel filter ang fuel tank. ang pinaka fuel filter/fuel water separator ay right beside the engine bay.

Good info. It was just cleaned and not replaced?

Hi All,
I finally got my Innova power loss problem fixed. Got my fuel tank and filter cleaned at a Shell gas station for P750.00. The fuel filter inside was quite dirty restricting fuel flow to the engine.
Now it works quite well, nearly like it was when I bought the car.
I initially thought it was the SCV valve or the fuel injector needs calibration or replacement. Got the injector cleaned with some improvement. Only when I got the fuel tank cleaned (of course with the fuel filter in the engine replaced), did I get the engine behave well as it should. Thank God!

Yes, meron filter sa loob ng tank. They had to pull down the tank and clean the inside esp. the filter. Need to raise the car to be able to remove it so a gas station providing this service is a good place. Mas mura pa kaysa sa Toyota o repair shops.
I'll try to find a way to post the pictures and send the link later.

Paki tingnan ang mga pictures sa Facebook "Toyota Innova Owners". Meron ding pictures ng cleaning ng fuel injectors.
Later I will post pictures on how the alternator was repaired. Medyo tricky kung tingnan pero easy lang pala.
