Tips Penjimatan Petrol Dengan Pemanduan Bijak

Driving styles

Keep your right foot light, accelerate gently and smoothly when moving off from stand-still. Do not idle your vehicle for several minutes in the morning to warm up. Most modern engines warm up to the optimum temperature quickly, and it is best to just start up and drive off gently.



Each time you brake, you are scrubbing off speed, which is energy that was built up by burning fuel. Minimizing the use of brakes means minimizing fuel wastage.


Small car

An economical car will be kinder to the environment as well, and help conserve the world’s finite reserves of fossil fuel.


Keep it light

Most of the unnecessary stuff cluttering the boot should be removed. All those stuff add weight, which in turn adds up to a higher fuel bill. Extra weight means poorer acceleration, too.


Quit smoking

A smoky car is a sure sign of an engine that has been neglected. Check the brakes, change oil and unblock the catalytic converter.


Unnecessary Accessory

Most of them are good ways to waste fuel. Wider tyres may not only adversely affect the handling of the vehicle but the increased rolling resistance on the road also wastes fuel.


Gizmos

There are loads of devices in the open market that claim to improve fuel economy. But most of these devices are subject to advertising hype and thus are a total waste of time.


Electronics Ignition System

Although not strictly a fuel-saving device, it ensures that the vehicle stays in tune and retains the fuel economy that a freshly-installed contact breaker system would provide.
