Fuel Saving Techniques

Continuation as it took only 17 points....




  1. Let me tell you one more important point related to 16. I think many of you know or might not. But this is majorly followed by me. Once you give the enough acceleration, you will know when the car is smooth and when it needs acceleration. Once you get to the stability and your target speed it 85 kmph, never give the acceleration more than the required. Just remove a bit of acceleration and check, I mention,  A BIT, slight difference. Car will be in the same motion and will maintain the same speed. Remove it more slightly, again, A BIT. Still the car will be in the same speed. Do this until you see a slight difference in the speedometer, suppose from 85kmph to 84 kmph. Now maintain the acceleration at this point. I call this the latest aceleration. Your car will run smoothly with the latest acceleration that is provided. This means you have given more acceleration than the required, which means the fuel consumption is more compared to the latest acceleration.




  2. Never drive the car in bad mood. You tend to drive it rashly or take less importance of it. After all, its a small pretty car that has costed your pocket. Its you who must take care of it. People generally tend to drive rash and behave as if they are not owning it, showing the anger or depression on the car. Without your knowledge, you car is consuming more fuel. Dude, dont laugh. Its a truth.




  3. Never dump the load in the rear. This will make the car imbalance. Always use carriage. This is because the load of the luggage will be balanced and centered. This will make the car run smoothly. If the load is more at the back, you tend to give more acceleration, which means fuel consumption is more than required. Balanced load, good fuel consumption with proper dirving.




  4. Last but not the least... never give your car for others to drive. Their driving techniques are different than you. Give it when you have no other option or if cant drive it at that point of time. True.... the difference in driving, the more in fuel consumption. Consider it out as your baby... dont laugh.... its true. The more care you take, the good mileage you get and the good condition of the car. Never rush up your car.






Will keep you posted for all that I do while driving.....


All the best... Happy driving... Save your pockets....
