Five best fuel saving techniques

Car, one of the most frequent mode of transportation used by people but when considering the expense for its fuel, it seems to be expensive.

best fuel saving techniques

1. Valves

Valves control the flow of air and fuel. Opening and moving of valves affects engine efficiency. If your car has variable valve timing and lift, then the potential efficiency improvement will be around 5%.

2. Deactivate Engine cylinders

The engine cylinders need to be deactivated when they are not in use and the cylinder de-activation technology saves fuel.

By using this technology, you can get an average efficiency increase of up to 7.5%.

3. Engine size

More the engine size, more the consumption of fuel.

It is better to use smaller engines that generates extra power by using turbo charger and super charger fans.

This gives you the potential efficiency of around 7.5%.

4. Inject the fuel directly

By injecting the fuel directly, you can precisely control the fuel mist and through direct fuel injection method, you can get higher compression ratio with efficient fuel intake.

Through this method, you can get a potential fuel efficiency of 12%.

5. Automatic restarting turn of engines

Automatic restarting turn of engines is essentially needed and through integrated starter/generator, you can stop wasting fuel for idling.
