Technical and Non technical Step to Save Fuel


Rising prices and fuel shortages continue to haunt the car users. In fact, many people have "dependence" using private cars as public transport do not support safe and comfortable.

However, the allocation of costs for fuel can actually be suppressed. The steps are simple, based on the experience of experts fuel reported by The Telegraph, the owner of the car only needs 10 follows the following simple steps:

1. Short cut path. 

Ideally, combine all your interests in one trip. In practice hard, but it can be tried. Therefore, if the car is parked a few hours until the engine temperature is cold, then the first 8 hours trip takes more fuel. So if it came to a stop, do not be too long.

2. Avoid driving in peak hours.  

This step is difficult to do, especially for office workers with standard working hours. To be avoided is difficult, but we can find the right time or limited hours, at least to reduce the duration of congestion.
Keep in mind, stop and go process affects engine work becomes more severe due to having to move the object from rest. Automatic fuel consumption is greatly increased.

3. Reduce wind access to the cabin. 

As much as possible close the window or sunroof while driving quite fast (above 50 kph). Since the entry of wind into the cabin can affect aerodynamic factors.

4. Avoid using roof box.  

These components can cause wind resistance is quite large. Surely will result adds weight to the machine work. Use only when need.

5 Avoid carrying unnecessary items. Just like the human body, the more weight the more energy is needed. Weights increase meaning that need more power, consequently, the more wasteful fuel consumption.


6. Press the throttle gently.  
Pressure effect on the gas pedal the throttle opening and running gasoline into the combustion chamber. It would be wise and efficient when it wants to achieve the desired speed, carried out through a subtle way (not aggressive). The more patient and wise driver put pressure on the gas pedal, the fuel will be more efficient. Preceding it is necessary, but do it smooth and calculating.

7. Maintain ideal rpm.  

The point "game" rpm. Do not really like the gas pedal in the lower gears. If the car type automatic transmission, you can definitely feel the most appropriate gear for the speed. Usually the ideal rpm range is at 1,000 to 3,000 rpm for petrol engines. As for the diesel between 1,000 to 2,000 rpm.

8. Adjust the Air Conditioner. 

If the cabin air is not too hot, set the air conditioning temperature can be done. Let the fan stays on, but only the temperature level being played. With so menurangi kerjan air conditioning compressor and the effect on the load of the engine rotation.

9. Limit the speed. 

Try not to spit power by pressing the gas pedal deeper and reaches top speed. Especially when you are on the highway. The faster moving, more heavy machine work plus the greater wind resistance.

10. Always checking tire pressure.  

The lower the tire pressure (deflated) the weight of the car is moving and the wasteful use of fuel. A flat tire, the tire is attached to the surface of the road will be even greater, automatic power also increases friction.
