Travel with a private vehicle is comfortable and enjoyable. But what happens if you use the vehicle turns wasteful of fuel. According Zacky, mechanical Workshop Three Brothers, Ciputat, least wasteful fuel consumption is strongly influenced by the style of driving the vehicle owner.
"How to drive with rude and inconsiderate could be the cause of the fuel-intensive vehicles," said Zacky to Plasadana.com to Yahoo Indonesia. "No matter how good the car technology, wasted fuel will remain free if berkendaranya improper manner."
In addition to how to drive, causing wasteful car is technical factors. Such adjustments are not appropriate vehicle components. Although the manufacturer has designed the engine fuel efficient vehicles, Zacky continue, increasing age could reduce the level of effectiveness in the use of the car. Although the vehicle is in-tune up. And this often occurs because the installation process of automobile components, such as spark plug or carburetor, less precise.
"To know the problematic component is quite easy," he said. "If the exhaust billowing black acid which create an eye sore, mean intake of fuel exceeds the dose aka wasteful."
Zacky advocate, do not overload the vehicle owner in excess. For vehicle load more than the maximum weight will affect brake performance, complicates control, as well as exacerbating the fuel consumption. "The lighter the load, the less fuel consumed," he said.
Tire pressure also affects the fuel consumption of vehicles. Each rolling, the tread surface of the wheel on the road will support the weight of the vehicle is accompanied by deformation of the tire tread itself. It is called resistance alias scroll scroll prisoners.
"If the tire pressure is less, prisoners scroll enlarged and cause the waste of fuel," said Zacky.
Therefore, he recommends that you drive very well and perform routine maintenance vehicles. For example, by changing the oil if it has reached the limit of mileage. Or conduct periodic servicing as recommended by the manufacturer. "Although trivial, it can make efficient vehicles and long-lived," he said.
