FUEL SAVING techniques ----in vehicles


  • Drive slow and steady-sudden starts and 'stop- and- go' driving waste fuel .For fuel economy the recommended speeds are:
scooters and auto-rickshaws : 40km/h
motorcycles : 50km/h
Mopeds : 20 -30km/h
  • Keep engine healthy
tests have proven that you can save 6% by regular tuning.

  • Use the brakes sparingly
a good driver anticipates stops.When you slam on the brakes, you waste a lot of useful energy.
Anticipate corners-you will be able to take them without braking.

  • Let go off your clutch
unnecessary use of clutch leads to loss of power ,
replace liners immediately when cluth is worn out.

  • Clean air filter regularly
Dust causes rapid wear of engine components and increase fuel consumption .

  • Watch tyre pressure
Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance and petrol consumption

  • Stop fuel leaks
Check your fuel tanks, carburetor and fuel liners daily for signs of leaking fuel.Al leak of fuel just one drop for second costs you 500 litres of precious petrol a year.

  • Stop the engine if the stoppage is for more than 2 mins
idling can cost money and fuel.stop your engine at long waits(say railway crossing)

  • Switch off lights in the day time
  • Use light lubrication
