A. Choosing the right automobile

- hindi porket 1.3 matipid. you have to consider kung ano ang ikakarga at ilan ang sasakay lagi sa kotse. example. magisa ka lang tapos office car mo yun so ikaw lang at bag mo plus pampalit ng damit ang nasa kotse mo, so OK lang ang 1.3 na kose

- Pero pag family car,3~4 people ang sakay plus groceries dapat 1.5

- you also have to consider the size of the car body, 1.3 nga ang makina pero full sized car naman so malaki ang ibabatak. hindi tulad ng 1.3 na small car, yun matipid yun

- CVT ay mas matipid sa manual transmission, ang Manual ay mas matipid sa Automatic transmission

 

B.Choosing the right fuel

- low octane rating is OK kapag lagi kang lumulusong sa traffic. pero pag long drive, you will be surprised na mas matipid ang higher octane kasi less ang tapak mo para magaccelerate

 

C. Gulong Gulong Gulong

- kapag ang gulong ay tabingi or flat, magastos sa gasolina

 

D. Tune up

- kapag ang makina ay malinis at naka tono, matipid sa gas kasi yung gasolina ay nasusunod ng lahat at hindi sumosobra ang buga ng gasolina

 

E. Khaos

- ang ginagawa lang nito ay dagdagan ang pumapasok na hangin para maging lean ang mixture sa makina, binabypass nito ang carbeurator

- Ok ito pag carbeurator ang engine mo, pero pag fuel injected, useless kasi mag readjust lang ang engine computer at dadagdagan nito ang bukas ng injectors

 

F. Fuel injectors at 2006 onwards cars

- kapag ikaw ay fuel injected, kapag nag brake ka, hindi nag inject ng fuel ang makina. momentum lang ng sasakyan ang nagpapaandar ng kotse mo. sa carbeurator, bawat galaw ng piston, inject din ng fuel..

 

G. Features ng auto

- alamin ang features ng auto, merong Overdrive na nakakatipid ng gas, may Overdrive na para kang nag menor (overtaking)

- yung VVTI,VTEC, at kung ano pang features na nagbabago bago ng valve movement, alamin kung para saan at kung kailan nag activate. kasi may feature na lumalakas ang hatak, meron naman pampatipid sa gasulina.

 

H. Driving habit

- kapag traffic, kahit anong gawin mo e maaksaya sa gas. kahit anong VVTI/VTEC/LinTEC/WalasTEC e hindi kayang gawing matipid ang gas mo kasi arangkada ka ng arangkada. best to avoid heavy traffic

- kapag mabigat ang paa mo (todo tapak sa gas,todo tapak sa brake), maaksaya ka sa gasolina.

- laging nag overtake, speed exceeding 100kph (all vehicles), going up an inclined road, wag nyo nang iexpect na titipid ang gasolina nyo

- going down an incline, engine brake

 

I.Sparkplugs

- Iridium,ganda ng sunog, kaso mahal plus hindi pwedeng linisin

- city cvt/manual na IDSi, sobrang tipid, pero dont expect na malakas ang acceleration

commute at least ones a week --

P1500 average weekly gas expense + parking of P500 for 5 days

kung babawasan ng isang araw magiging P1600 total for 4 days

1 day commute = P80 back and forth na, that's P320 in weekly savings! ^_^

x 4 weeks a month = P1300 saved, that's a week of gasoline budget!

mainit at siksikan nga lang.. <_<

plus a 5% chance of being pulled over by the traffic enforcer. ouch 500 pesos!!!

or hitting another car.or be hit by another vehicle (AHEMmotorcycles). that'll bleed you 6000 pesos more or less!

 

at work, we have a saying, that the best fuel saving engine is the one that is not being used :P
