Oghumu1: Your tutor may well have taught you that (never heard of a certified ADI teaching this) but it's dangerous. No engine braking, so 100% reliance on the car's brakes. No brake servo assistance. So more food effort required to stop the car in an emergency situation. Brake fade, if the brakes get really hot, depending on the length of the slope. No servo + overheated rotors = likely disaster. No steering assistance. Wheel can be operated with more effort, but in an emergency situation calling for sudden evasive action... If the ignition lock is worn, it is possible for the key to be withdrawn, or fall out. This WILL result in the steering lock activating. You would risk the above, and endanger other road users, in an attempt to save 50ml of fuel? It's also worth noting on a vehicle without automatic stop-start, each time you shut down the engine, it uses more fuel on start-up. And each time you restart your engine, your fuel gauge reading is marginally lower EACH time. |

lonelydora:I personally think that when your car glasses are whined down the car struggles more in movement cos of the air that comes in the car while moving that makes the engine burn more fuel. But when your glasses are up and AC on or not the car moves more lighter and free. Have also driven my car without AC on for a week to compare the rate at which the fuel goes there wasn't any difference when the AC is on. |
