alpha conde: Hi car users Speed itself up to a certain point when coefficient of air drag is not a factor will not consume that much fuel. How fast you get up to speed is what you should worry about. Stop and go traffic will always consume a lot more fuel than maintaining a speed of 100 MPH (160KPH) on the highway. Another way of saying what I just said is to watch out for your RPM moving past 3000 if you do not what to consume fuel. RPM (revolutions per minute) tells you how many times the pistons in your engine, which are tied to the crankshaft, are moving up and down. If distance covered remains the same, more revolutions of the piston = more fuel burned. |
