Fuel Consumption Influences driving style?

AUTOMOTIVE, New York: Traffic jams in the city, not just spend our energy and patience, but also the energy spent fuel alias. In addition to technical factors machine, waste of fuel is also highly dependent on our driving.


There are several things to consider to save on fuel consumption, not only for the driver in Jakarta, but anywhere.
1. Do not walk on the gas pedal suddenlyWe recommend that you step on the gas pedal with a steady and gradual. If stepped on the gas pedal all of a sudden, automatic fuel to be sucked into the combustion chamber is also growing.Meanwhile, at that engine speed is low. Consequently not all the fuel that goes into the engine room fire. This is called waste.Because, no fuel coming out in the form of energy, but go wasted through the exhaust.
2. Drive with the smoothIn addition to the gas pedal to the stable, should reduce the frequency of braking as well. When facing a red light does not need menggeber gas, let the car slide because they had to stop.Reduce the frequency of the gas and brake menggeber. This action is a step disposal of wasted energy.
3. Take advantage of Engine BrakeWhen sliding or decreased, do not positioned in neutral gear. In addition to harmful effects of engine braking proved to save more fuel than the engine in a stationary position.
4. Recognize RPM MachineOne way to make an efficient fuel consumption is to change gear (transmission) the right, when the engine reaches maximum torque (maximum moment).
Shifting when the car is in need of torque (thrust) are great, should be done by taking into account information about the moment of maximum (maximum torque) of each car (usually in units of kgm / rpm). If the vehicle is moving (do not require the thrust), the most efficient when driving with RPM in 2,500 s / d 3500 and with the highest gear.
Example, the technical data in the manual book written maximum torque: 200Nm/3.750rpm. This means the highest moment of 200nm occurs when the engine spins as much as 3750 per minute. In this example, means that we should do the gearshift when the figure shows the range of 3750 rpm. RPM figures can be seen in the tachometer that are on the car dashboard.
Figures RPM on the tachometer is very important to note. To streamline the fuel consumption, while speeding down the road maintains the engine speed in the range of the maximum torque.Because, that's when fuel supply is in accordance with the output of the engines.
One habit that is often forgotten rider is not immediately adjust the gears after the speed decreases (deceleration). After running hard and then suddenly braked, you should also pass a tooth gears to a lower position.
5. Measure the HC and COWhether or not wasteful fuel consumption is also determined by the components of the machine. Machine components which have a lot of wear / damage could cause incomplete combustion processes. To detect it, check the exhaust emissions. When the examination results show the value of HC (hydrocarbon) and CO (carbon monoxide) is too high, this is a sign of combustion in the combustion chamber is not perfect (a lot of wasted fuel).
6. Expenses and MoverAnother factor that determines the fuel consumption is the load and driving (driving a vehicle). Increasingly heavy burden that must be transported, consumption will also increase. The definition of driving including: clutch, bearings (wheel), coupling (propeller shaft), axles, and wheels.
If the components are worn or damaged, would cause the loss of power generated by the engine to drive the car drove. Meanwhile, fuel consumption is still large. Related to the wheels, the use of large tires and wheels, as well as factors affecting fuel consumption.
Another thing to note is the problem of vehicle maintenance. Do not heat the car for too long, a maximum of 2 minutes. Warming-up machine for 30 minutes, same as stuck in traffic for 30 minutes juga.Mintalah workshop setting timing according to the type of fuel used. Ignition point too forward or backward resulting in wasteful fuel. In addition, rajinlah clean air filter (can be done alone) per 2,500 km, or depending on conditions. Good luck.(Manualbookmobil.com / mla)
