Fuel Saving Tips (Must See)

In the face of today's high gas prices, since you can not change the price of gas, you need to learn how to drive to save more fuel.

1. Wrong view:Not timely maintenance will shorten the engine life, no effect on fuel saving.

Not timely maintenance, not only will shorten the engine life, but also increase fuel consumption. Many people have experienced that it is correct to say that the throttle is lighter after an oil change. With the use of time, the oil began to become dirty or deteriorated, lubrication performance decreased, resistance increased. Of course, the engine will have some difficulty turning over.

The gasoline filter is also important in the maintenance program. It is connected in series in the fuel line. Over time, the filter element, which acts as a filter, gets clogged. As a result, gasoline won't flow smoothly, and the water deposited under the filter will begin to mix with the gasoline, which affects the engine's combustion. If the combustion is poor, the power will be poor. Thus, in order to get good acceleration, the driver will press the gas pedal more y, which will consume fuel.

Air air filters look like masks that people wear. Over time, dirt will stick to the filter paper. The air flow will be unpleasant, the engine will not breathe well, and the natural work will be boring. In the same way, the driver will step on the gas more, which will waste gas. In fact, the concept of modern maintenance is no longer as simple as changing the oil filter three times. From the point of view of fuel saving, it is essential to keep the vehicle in good condition. For example, almost all car manufacturers do not include cleaning of injectors and air intake systems in their maintenance programs, but every brand of 4S store will require the injectors or air intake system to be cleaned within a certain number of kilometers to maintain engine power, save fuel and reduce air pollution.

2:Empty use and maintenance have a big impact on fuel savings.

In the summer, how to correctly use and maintain the air conditioning is not only related to comfort, but also affect fuel economy.

(1) Use:

A. Park in the shade whenever possible. If you must stay in the sun, don't turn on the air switch immediately after driving. It's more fuel efficient to lower all four windows first and let the flowing empty air carry away the heat from the car before turning on the air switch.

B. Alternate between internal and external circulation: When using the internal circulation, the refrigerant of the empty air continuously takes away the heat of the air inside the car, so it is easy to take away the heat inside the relatively closed air chamber, and the compressor works for a short period of time. The use of external circulation, you can ensure that the outside of the relatively fresh air into the car.

(2) Maintenance:

Check and maintain the air conditioning system in time. If the surface of the evaporator and condenser is dirty, it will affect the flow of the air body, so the heat exchange efficiency will be poor, the compressor will work for a long time, and the compressor will consume the power of the engine, and of course, it will consume more and more expensive gasoline.

3. Tire chassis, drive train and fuel saving

A. Tires:

(1) Tire air pressure has a great impact on fuel saving. Anyone who has ridden a bicycle knows that. Sufficient air to ride energy-saving, flat tires ride heavy, the car is also heavy. Always check your tire air pressure to make sure it is within the range specified by the manufacturer.

(2) Don't blindly replace wide tires. If the tread is widened, the driving resistance will increase.

(3) Dynamic balance is also important. When the vehicle runs out at a certain speed, it is generally suspected that there is a problem with the dynamic balance of the tires. At this time, part of the driving force of the tires is broken down into run-outs, and the loss of power will increase fuel consumption.

(4) tire tread. Severe tread wear not only affects safety, but also increases the contact area with the ground, thus increasing driving resistance.

B.Chassis:(1)Four-wheel alignment has an effect on fuel consumption, such as incorrect front beam. When driving in a straight line, the two tires friction rolling, driving resistance increases, tire wear increases.

(2)Four-wheel bearings:Bearing damage or lack of lubrication, driving resistance increases.

(3)Brakes:Brake system failure causes the brakes to seize or drum brake clearance is not properly adjusted causing the brakes to stop. How do you know if your brakes have stopped? The easiest way is to pick up neutral immediately after the vehicle is started and the vehicle should be able to coast for a certain distance. If the vehicle stops immediately, it will most likely stop. At this point it is slightly more laborious to hang the neutral individually with a jack support for each wheel, and turn it by hand to see if it is comfortable. If a hot color is observed on the discs or drums, they should be taken to the brake system for repair immediately.

C. Driveline:

(1) Manual gear clutch slippage (clutch binding point is too high) will lose power.

(2)Automatic transmission complex:Insufficient or deteriorated transmission fluid may cause loss of transmission efficiency, so it is very important to check the automatic transmission fluid. The car cooling scale under the automatic transmission fluid gauge is a safety scale, not a testing scale. When the car does not meet this height, it is not allowed to be driven, so transmission fluid must be added, and the hot car scale is the standard measurement scale. It is usually necessary to drive the car to room temperature, park it on a level surface, and then put it in all gears. Then measure the fluid level, which should be between the two scales of the hot car standard. In addition, you should smell the odor, not burnt, and observe the color, not too dirty.

4. Gasoline selection and fuel saving

(1)Gasoline quality:Don't go to the gas station without guarantee. Insufficient purity of gasoline will increase the production of carbon deposits in the engine, and some of the markers are insufficient, which will damage the engine and reduce power.

(2)The label of the gasoline:Choose the label recommended by the manufacturer.

a, low labeling. Bursting, screaming, power outages, severe engine damage.

B. Premium oil:Not only will it directly lead to a waste of price, but also the combustion rate of premium oil will be reduced due to the increase in anti-detonation properties, which will lead to a loss of power. So, choose gasoline, only the right one, not the expensive one.

5.5. There may be some signs of oil consumption:

(1) The malfunction light comes on. This is particularly important. Modern cars usually monitor the working condition of the powertrain. Once a component or system is found to be faulty, the malfunction light will illuminate, prompting the driver to get it repaired promptly. After some faults are connected, the driver does not feel anything different about the vehicle. At this time, he must not be lazy and must be repaired in time, because there is a possibility that this fault is just secretly drinking too much oil, or that a bigger fault is brewing.

(2) Difficulty in starting, shaky idle, weak acceleration, exhaust gas failure. There are some types of malfunctions that computers can't monitor, or some models don't monitor such malfunctions. If these phenomena occur, it means that your engine is not working well and needs to be repaired. At this point, the engine is likely to be "indigestible," with gasoline being discharged before it is burned or not burned sufficiently.

(3) pay attention to the engine water temperature. Low water temperature, high oil viscosity, high mechanical resistance, the computer will think that the warm-up is not yet complete, high idle speed, thick fuel injection, more expensive.

Of course, Bianshao also believes that there is a way to save oil, that is, less driving, try to choose transportation or riding a bicycle, both to reduce environmental pollution, but also to save oil and money, and most importantly, exercise, can be said to be two in one.
