Fuel Saving Tips

pag naka turbo charger ba mas tipid sa fuel?

[[J][E][F]]

know the cars optimal rev.. not too low and not too high, then shift there... you wouldn't notice but you'll be consuming less gasoline or diesel.

pag naka turbo charger ba mas tipid sa fuel?

 

as i've said, power to weight ratio is one great factor, including doon un power band ng engine.. turbo should help, pero pag sa low rpm p lang mataas na boost niya, you'll end up using too much power you don't need thus making it inefficient.. good example ng hi power at low rpm ay ung mga V8 na exped, idle pa lang ng exped mataas na power non, ready for towing un anytime. set ur turbo at low boost at low rpm. for diesel naman, kaya ung ibang diesel matakaw dahil most of its power ay below 2500rpm kaya konteng tapak lang lakas na agad pasok ng fuel.

nakakatipid ba yung nitrogen sa tires?

 

 

not really but a properly inflated tire help save fuel.

if your idling for more than a minute stop your engine... one start-up is equal to one minute of idling in fuel consumption...

good idea, parang gusto ko itry yan! maglagay ka na rin ng signboard sa windshield mo hehe

mga boss may tanong ako...

auto ko ngaun is automatic transmission with electronic controlled transmission... kailangan b lagi itong nka-on para makatipid s gas or in certain situations lng and kailan dapat gamitin ito... tnx ng madami... nasanay ako s manual kc... tnx!

Sir,

Yung ECT sa Toyota auto transmission yan. Kapag hindi naka-pindot o "normal" mode nasa save mode siya. Pag naka-pindot, nasa power mode siya. Sa power mode, mas mataas ang rev ng engine bago siya mag-shift sa next higher gear. Iwan mong hindi naka-pindot para tipid.

 

Tapos dahil VVT-i naman engine mo, hindi kailangan apakan ng malalim ang pedal para pagalawin ang sasakya. Easy ka lang sa pag apak sa pedal matipid ang sasakyan mo. Pindotin mo lang pag nagmamadali ka.

don't drive like a maniac. rapid acceleration and braking = wasted fuel.

 

kung yung auto mo matanda na at bumababa ang fuel mileage, ganyan talaga. wag ka na umasang gaganda pa mileage nyan. magpalit ka na ng auto. wag kayo maniwala sa khaos o anumang kabalbalan na fuel saving devices. WALANG KAHIT ISANG FUEL SAVING DEVICE ANG DUMAAN SA INDEPENDENT LABORATORY TESTING.

Maintaining speed at 80 kph (on highways, that is) is an effective way of saving fuel - tried and proved it myself. :thumbsupsmiley:

 

Not exactly.. sinasabi lang yun sa express ways so yung mga drivers hindi tumakbo ng mabilis.. you might be running at higher revs at higher speed pero masmabilis ang byahe. i tried driving an fx 80kph, 100kph and 140kph sa nlex.. pero it turned out na tipid ung 140kph even im running at around 5Trpm.. back and fort araneta ave and tabang exit usually takes me 25min pag 80kph, 8km/l while 10-15min lang in smooth acceleration 100-140kph, 10km/l.. it doesn't mean masmababa rpm mastipid ka, mababa nga rpm mo pero mabigat tapak mo, mas malaki bukas ng throttle mo thus more air and fuel is pumped into your engine.. I'm not saying that you should drive faster! you might save fuel pero you're increasing the risk at makadamay! siguro pag walang traffic ok lang, your choice, your risk.. pero i like driving fast..

as for shutting the engine of, engines usually consume a lot of fuel in order to start the engine.. dahil mabigat paikotin ang engine from a strating point of 0.. it's like riding a bike, its easier to maintain a smooth speed than pagnakahinto tapos papatakbohin palng.. i've tried doing that sa stoplights pero it doesn't work at all.. unless sa traffic that is not moving for 5-10min.. or pagpababa, i usually turn off the engine pag traffic then e-brake nlng.. dont worry, hindi totoong masisira e-brake mo, e-brake is just a mechanical brake same with how brakes in bikes work.. cable type lang brake w/o the help of the hydrobx..

for me the best way of saving fuel is to leave the car at home and take the public transportation.

the best way to save on fuel is to accelerate gradually with a constant pressure on the accelerator - once at the speed you desire keep the pressure.

 

Stop start accelerating where you press and then release, press and then release wastes a lotta petrol - drive at a constant speed

[Headroom]

Not to sure that free wheeling will save you anything - its dangerous as you have less control over the vehicle and once the car decelerates you have to press the pedal again.

this is so true..easy lang sa accelarator and ull get some savings on gas consumption.

wag kang humataw ng humataw sa kalye yun ang matipid
