High fuel consumption is a headache for many motorists. It especially intensifies at times of rising fuel prices. The Niva car is already famous for its high fuel consumption, but you can reduce it by following simple recommendations
Instructions
Step 1
Make it a rule to check your tire pressure before every ride. Flat tires are one of the main causes of sudden increases in fuel consumption. For Niva, the developers recommend a pressure of 2, 0/2, 1. In order not to check each wheel every time, you can purchase tire pressure sensors. For Niva, removable sensors are best suited, which are installed instead of nipples. The set includes four sensors and a remote control, which displays information about the pressure in each tire. Typically, the console will notify you with a beep that there is a difference in tire pressure.
Step 2
Get diagnosed at a specialized center regularly. This will help identify future damage at the stage of its appearance. This way you will spend less money on repairs. Clogged fuel filters are a common cause of excessive fuel consumption. You also need to monitor the condition of the injector, which requires cleaning from time to time.
Step 3
Chipping of the engine can help to reduce fuel consumption. This method is suitable for owners of injection vehicles. Chipovka is a computer readjustment of the electronic control unit of your engine. Remember that by choosing one, you are sacrificing another. In particular, reflashing for reduced fuel consumption, you will lose several horsepower. Therefore, carefully weigh the pros and cons. Do not, under any circumstances, resort to the help of handicraftsmen. In a specialized center, you will pay a little more, but you will have a guarantee that everything will be done to you correctly and competently.
Step 4
As funny as it sounds, one way to save gas is to not drive too fast. The fact is that at a speed of 60-90 km / h, fuel consumption increases by about 2 times, and at a speed of 120 km / h already by as much as 70%. The reason is air resistance. The higher the speed, the more power the engine has to spend on overcoming it, therefore, the consumption increases. This is especially pronounced in the Niva with its high coefficient of air resistance.
Step 5
Another very good way to save money is to install gas equipment. Equipment made in Italy is famous for its quality. The cost of installation is about two thousand dollars, but if you often use a car, then it will pay off literally within a year. If you are a smoker, then you will have to refrain from smoking in a car with HBO, as it is very dangerous.
