Suzuki Swift 1992: Thirsty 3-cylinder engine

My 1992 Suzuki 3-cylinder should use about 6 L/100 km, but it's using double that. It's not running rich and the timing is correct, what do you reckon is wrong with it?

It will be 20 years old next year, it could simply be that it’s worn out. Check the engine’s vitals, like the compression etc.
