Tips on Fuel Saving.

In the 90's,it's not quite a problem to our father to fuel up the gas tank when the tank is half full,or else.That scenario right now may not applicable in this kind of era where oil,way back to the 90's,is quite cheap,and today,it is valuable,until the last drop of the oil from the fuel nozzle,until there are some vehicle owner using some method unthinkable back to the 90's,which is,for example pressing the petrol pump nozzle lightly,so that the petrol doesn't become fume instantly after it when to the tank.Other using some unconventional technique;while at the end of pumping the oil,they lift the hose,and shake it,hoping some of the fuel will enter the tank,ridicules!






Actually,when there is a will,there is a way.Fortunately for us,our country is a largest palm oil producer in the world.We can achieve more,with R and D,but i don't see a clear view,where the hell,this project will go through.






Back to business,about how to save fuel,one should reconsider what type of vehicle needed,base on for what the practicality of the vehicle.You don't need a hummer or a fuel guzzler truck to sent your son to the kinder garden.You can,use motorcycle instead.It's about thinking rationally.






Some young peoples,i meant,all young peoples,ex specially the guy,their tendency to be a heavy footer is very high.For some reason,maybe because they were born to be "kamikaze" driver i guess.These kind of people,can be heavy footer,but with some condition,they can only do that when it's pay day,that means,only 3 or 4 days out of 1 month to filled with their need for speed attitude.







Invest on motorcycle,to be use to go to work,maybe on monsoon season,you can use car instead.A full tank of motorcycle can last 3 to 4 days,depend on the distance you travelling.maybe some will shout,"what the F***!?you want me to ride a motorcycle?it's embarrassing!"Anyway,it's up to the user,i don't "make" you to ride motorcycle.






Use public transport often.But use the monthly card,it would save you a lot,and save your time to pay the fare.






Make sure your car's bonnet is not filled with ridicules things.Throw out useless thing expect the spare tyre and the jack of course.The lighter the car,the better.Also consider for a long term,to change into lighter rim.The tyre should fully inflate,so that less drag occured between the tyre and the tarmac.






Service your car when it's needed.Don't ever wait until your fuel consumption rose up,and damaging your internal engine components,that would costed you big bucks.







Preferring a car that already proven fuel efficient,likes the Honda City.If you are using Suv,pickup,you can choose to install NGV kits,but be sure,your house or your office is near to Petronas that have NGV pump.Refill your NGV tank at night where the line-up is shorter,and the air is colder.





Happy saving fuel!
