Post your ACP FC and Tips to improve Fuel Mileage

[puroy]

Just to add lang to improve your FC is by your right foot. naka-depend talaga mostly kung papitik-pitk lang or always full throttle ka. (driving style, ika nga) :D

update lang. medyo mababa nakuha ko sa Petron e10:

Gas Station - Petron ATC
Gas Pumped - 34.18L
Trip Meter - 323.8km
Ave. FC - 9.47km/L

Balik muna ako sa Unleaded ngayon kasi walang Shell e10 sa nadaanan ko.

Plan ko mag-switch E10 -- kelangan ba magpa-near empty muna ako bago ako magpa full-tank ng E10? or ok lang humalo kahit half pa yung tank ko?

mas maganda sir kung near empty yung tank mo para mas accurate yung pag-compute ng FC mo.

Hello guys, just had my 5K PMS in TYT Balintawak and saw a copy of their "Fuel Efficiency Guide" which I would like to share. So enjoy reading....

A. Driving Techniques:
1. Drive and Glide Driving - Accelerating and driving under 2,000rpm is the most fuel-efficient. Anticipate stops. When approaching intersections, for example, glide the rest of the way.

2. Maintain a safe distance - When following a car, maintain a safe distance to allow for ample reaction time for accelerating or decelerating instantly when suddenly needed.

3. Horizon Driving - Don't just focus your attention on the bumper of the car ahead. Keep your eyes on the horizon to anticipate your actions and avoid upcoming obstacles by changing lanes instead of braking frequently.

4. Avoid Engine Idling - When you let your vehicle idle longer that 10 seconds, you burn more fuel that you would when restarting the engine. Contrary to common perception, most vehicles don't require engine warm up.

5. Stay under the speed limit - As a general rule, always try to stay at least 10km/h under the speed limit, specially when driving uphill or on the highway.

B. Travelling Tips:
1.Combine errands - Avoid short trips. If you have multiple stops, plan them to do all on the same trip. A longer "chain" of errands will result in a better fuel economy than multiple short ones.

2. Avoid bad weather - Avoid driving in inclement weather if possible, as rain can dramatically increase rolling resistance.

3. Windows up - Drive windows up at higher speeds to minimize aerodynamic drag. Use flow-through ventilation if possible.

C. Car Care & Maintenance:
1. Maintain your vehicle properly - Be consistent in having your regular vehicle check-up. A poorly maintained vehicle consumes more fuel, produces higher levels of emissions, and requires expensive repairs.

2. Proper Tire Pressure - Keep your tires properly inflated as recommended by the manufacturer. A single tire under-inflated by just 8psi can increase your vehicle's fuel consumption by 4%.

3. Clear junk from your trunk - The additional weight you carry in your vehicle doesn't ride for free. It takes energy to move it around. Removing unnecessary stuff from your vehicle safes fuel.

Guyz,

Another way of saving fuel is to lighten up our car's load. Heavy load means more power and more power means more gas. And there is also a tire that helps save gas and helps the environment as well.

With the Michelin Energy XM1 and MXV8 you experience the finest
level of driving comfort, optimum grip and handling. These tires get you all that, in all conditions, plus longer tire life. As your tires consume 20% of your car’s fuel, Michelin Energy tires feature innovative Energy, GREEN X™ – a breakthrough technology that uses silica
compounds which reduce the amount of energy required to push your car, saving fuel and reducing car emission thus saving the environment. For better luxury and comfort without sacrificing
anything else including the environment.

I just want to share what I've read. Im just waiting for my stock dunlop tires to wear-off so that I could replace it with Michelin Energy Tires.

Michelin also has a new promo started just yesterday.. Maybe there are members here who already due to replace their tires, this is a good time to do it because there is a promo.

ilan km bago expected na mag wear of ang tires natin?

type of tire, tire width, tire pressure are some of the factors that effect FC.
