This works for Fuel savings

[Rao]

it works for me not sure if it will for you.

 

as my ride is a heavy one 230JM.

 

i pump pertol only 1/4 max 1/2tank if plan to drive long distance.

 

i pump frequently. i notice m fc hit new landmark of 9.5km/l

 

used to be 8-8.5 prev.

 

 

does this sound logic to you?

 

cheers

[Watwheels]

No. If want fuel savings buy small car.

[Cybersurf]

Logical because you don't carry additional weight by having a full tank :-)

[Galantspeedz]

why would one be so concerned about FC when he buys a 2.3l vehicle... abit illogical... and by pumping 1/4 tank, you be going petrol station more often...... money can earn back... time cannot

of course it does... the lighter your car the less fuel it burns to move it... If you watch F1 some parts of the race the teams need to decide to run on full or just enough till the next pit stop... in their case time and placing and other factors take into account...

 

But all cars will have a slightly better FC if they travel lighter... on top of other factors like speed and car type also take into account on actual FC.

 

Yours definitely a guzzler.

How heavy is half tank of petrol? Compared to kerb weight + driver/passenger of at least 1.5 ton?

you should be able to feel the difference in power of a car when you are carrying a passenger and when you're not. A full tank of petrol weighs about 40kg.

get a 2.3l car dan come here to tell us u wan to save petrol and it works for u the way u does??? com'on, change to a 1.3l car dan save until gao gao till jurong...

[Good-Carbuyer]

If you are kidding with us, this is ticklish.

You save even more if you could detour around the regular traffic jams (about 25% for my route), instead of going to the petrol station more often

[Schell31]

My 2.5L Teana consumption is 11km/litre.

 

So far so good....

[Vextan]

this kind of thread is obviously want to seek attention by starting a stupid thread to attract rebute.

[Genes]

No. If want fuel savings buy small car.

I really think there should be a "like" button somewhere.

[questionedfish]

the time and money spent to go to the petrol station to top up already covers more than this attempt to reduce tank weight...

[Crazecow]

I find it wierd that TS got money ot buy big car with big CC engine but no money on petrol?

Lol, I agreed. If driving a vios or Getz or Jazz and trying to get better FC, I can understand. Drive a 230J and trying to save fuel till such an extend....lol......Change car, its better for you.

[Celicar]

This strategy disregards price fluctuations. If price increased by the time you pump again, savings down/gone.

 

Plus some stations give discount if pump beyond a certain amount, 1/2 or 1/4 tank may not get you there.
