Increased Fuel Consumption

Increased Fuel Consumption
Increased vehicle fuel consumption is influenced by the carrier vehicle itself, among others:

1. Warming the engine and mileage
Warming the engine (warm-up) the old, will throw fuel. If the engine temperature is low, there will be more fuel is needed, because the idle rotation is higher due to work fast idling. Based on this fact, if a short distance, then the ratio of the road when the engine is cold increases so that fuel consumption will also increase.


INSTRUCTIONS:
Warming the engine
To improve fuel consumption, reduce engine warm-up time as much as possible. Although it is winter, stop the heating if the indicator teperatur start moving (water temperature 40 to 50 degrees Celsius)

2. Load conditions and number of passengers
If the load and passengers increases, the weight of vehicles will also rise, and fuel consumption was increased


3. Usage of water conditioner (AC)
If the AC compressor works, then the unused power of the engine, so fuel consumption increases. Employment rate will increase when the compressor temperature and higher air humidity. The amount of air is blown will be reduced if the car speed is low, so that the air conditioner cooling performance deteriorates. As a result, the load is supplied to the engine will increase. That is why when the vehicle is stuck in traffic traffic at high temperatures, fuel consumption increased by 20 to 30%.

4. Electrical load
Alternator workload increased with increasing amount of electricity consumption, thus fuel consumption was meningka


5. Walking in the city and the traffic
Walking with such conditions, will certainly add fuel consumption. Because the car more often walk slowly, longer stops, are also more frequent acceleration and deceleration. If the road is sometimes jammed, then the car will more often be accelerated and deceleration, so that fuel consumption would be more wasteful than the road that still allows the car was traveling at low speed.

 Average speed of vehicles
The average speed of vehicles can be easily calculated by mileage and latency. However, if the vehicle has traveled long distances, either through current or traffic congestion, vehicle speed should be calculated separately for each condition by separating the several blocks. In this case one needs to separate the ratio between low speed and high-speed distance.

 When stopping the vehicle
Each time the vehicle stops, fuel used, although the distance 0 km. So that its fuel efficiency to 0 km / liter. If the time constant becomes longer, the fuel efficiency will deteriorate.



6. Running on a freeway
On the freeway, when the car is running at a constant speed, sometimes the fuel consumption increases. But when the speed is increased, fuel consumption is also increasing. In general, if the speed reduced from 100 km / h to 80 km / h, then fuel consumption will decrease by 10 to 30 percent.

7. Starting and acceleration
Start fast (fast start) or sudden acceleration requires more fuel than the ordinary use for the same mileage and speed. In general, fast start or sudden acceleration require the same fuel by running about 100m. To reduce fuel consumption, keep the distance between other vehicles and a constant speed


8. Operation of the wasteful acceleration
Race or shuffled accelerator requires the same amount of fuel needed to run about 50 meters.Increased Fuel Consumption
Increased vehicle fuel consumption is influenced by the carrier vehicle itself, among others:

9. Operation of the gear shifting lever (shift)
In general, unless pengendaraannya conditions worsen, such as knocking occurs, use a high gear and makes the engine spins as low as possible will reduce fuel consumption.
