Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / 4x4 Cars / January 2006Fuel Consumption
I have just gone over to a 2 Litre TD Grand Vitara from a petrol vehicle, what I want to know is. If the ideal speed for the best petrol consumption is 56 MPH, what is the best speed for a 2 Litre TD to get the best diesel consumption. >I have just gone over to a 2 Litre TD Grand Vitara from a petrol vehicle, >what I want to know is.

Try keeping the engine at the speed (RPM) that produces the maximum torque. For example, my Hummer has max torque at 1700 RPM, so if I keep it at that RPM in high gear (OD) I, in theory, get teh best economy. >> I have just gone over to a 2 Litre TD Grand Vitara from a petrol vehicle, >> what I want to know is.

Good advise especially if it occurs at 60 mph or less.  Signature----------------- www.thesnoman.com |
