Gas has become a huge expense for many.天然气已成为一个巨大的牺牲许多。 Its time tweak our usage of this commodity.其时间调整我们使用这种商品。 If you are trying to make money it just might start with saving it.如果你想赚钱只是可能开始拯救它。 Here’sa few tips that will help you squeeze a few extra dollars and miles out of each tank of gas.以下几点建议将帮助你挤一些额外的美元和英里每罐的天然气。
First let me explain that I’ve been running this as an experiment for the past 6 weeks and am reporting my findings based on the average.首先请允许我解释说,我一直在运行,这是一项实验,在过去6个星期,我发现我的报告的基础上平均水平。 I generally have to fill up my tank once a week and I drive a 2007 Honda Accord (fully loaded - V6) which I did this test with.我通常都以填补我的坦克每星期一次,我2007年驾驶本田雅阁(满载-V 6发动机) ,我做到了这个测试。 Results may vary from car to car.结果可能会有所不同从汽车到汽车。
I am assuming a 15 gallon tank and and automatic shift car for the following figures and techniques.我相信假设十五加仑和坦克和汽车自动换挡的下列数字和技术。 My usage prior to this experiment was 21 miles per gallon (I would not consider myself an aggressive driver).我使用此之前实验21英里每加仑(我不认为自己积极的司机) 。 After the changes I was getting 26 miles per gallon.变化后,我得到26英里每加仑。 This can be calculated by recording the old mileage number on your receipt and divide that number by your gallons.这可以计算出录音旧的里程数在您的收据和鸿沟人数由您加仑。 Then remember to zero out the meter for your next run.然后记住了零米为您下次运行。
9 Ways To Get 75 Extra Miles Out Of Your Car: 9日的方式获得额外75英里的汽车:
- The 2000 RPM Rule: This is a fundamental principal I followed throughout this exercise. 2000年RPM的规则:这是一个根本性的主要我也跟着整个这项工作。 Never allow your RPM to exceed 2000.不要让您的转速超过2000年。 Anything over this is only acceptable after you’ve hit 5th gear.任何东西,这是唯一可以接受后,您已经触及5档。 Your car works less for the same RPM’s in higher gears thus becoming more efficient.您的汽车工程不太相同转速的更高的齿轮从而成为更有效率。 The higher your RPM’s the more fuel you are consuming because your engine is working harder.较高的转速是更多的燃料消耗你是因为你的引擎是更加努力。
- Slow startups: After stopping at a traffic light or stop sign start up slowly following rule one.慢创业:停车后在红绿灯或停止的迹象开始慢慢下列规则之一。 When your car just barely hits above the 2000 RPM mark, lightly lay off the accelerator for a brief second and allow the car to shift gears early .当您的车刚刚安打以上的2000年转大关,轻易解雇加速器进行了短暂的第二次和允许赛车换档早。 In many cases you can do this so subtly that you are actually applying a slight big of gas while the gear shifts.在许多情况下,你可以这样做,你巧妙的实际应用略有大的天然气,而齿轮的变化。 If you accelerate right up to 2000 RPM your car will not shift.如果你加速,直到2000年转你的车将不会改变。 There is a ratio (that is probably different with every car) between your MPH and your RPM’s.有一个比率(可能是不同的每车)之间的硕士和你转的。 For example, to hit first gear in my Accord and stay below 2000 RPM, I must reach 15 MPH.例如,为了打击一档在我的雅阁和住宿转速低于2000年,我必须达到15英里。 The key is keeping your RPM below 2000 until you get to that point for the subtle release (and then repeat for the next gear).问题的关键是使您的转速低于2000年,直到您到达这一点的微妙的新闻稿(然后重复下一个齿轮) 。
- 3) Neutral stops. 3 )中性停止。 When you’re at a stoplight for an extended period of time (usually because it just changed red as you got there) shift your car into neutral.当你在为stoplight较长一段时间内(通常是因为它只是改变了红色,你到了那里)移您的汽车变成中性。 This provides minor savings by causing less stress on the car.这为未成年人造成储蓄不足的压力赛车。 Generally in the drive gear you would move along at 5 MPH assuming a flat surface.一般在传动齿轮你会沿着5硕士假设一个平面上。 That five MPH is expending gas.这五个硕士正在花费天然气。 So when you’re at a stoplight with the gear in drive and your break petal down, you’re canceling out that energy.所以,当您在stoplight与齿轮驱动器和您的收支平衡的花瓣下,你是取消了能源。 Putting your car in neutral prevents that energy from being expended. UPDATE : In newer cars the opposite is true for this.把你的车在中性阻止,能源被用完。 更新:在新的汽车正好相反的。 They’ve made some improvements in which its actually better to stay in drive.他们做了一些改进,其实际更好地留在驱动器中。 Test it out for yourself in your car.测试出来为自己在你的车。 When you’re at an stop, switch it from drive to neutral.当你在一个站,从开关机,以保持中立。 If your RPM’s drop then its better for you to be in neutral.如果您转的下拉那么它更好地为您将在中立的。 If not, use neutral only for use in point four and then immediately switch into drive.如果不是,使用中性只能用于四个点,然后立即切换到驱动器。
- On a similar note to the previous point, when you’re approaching a light that you know you will have to wait at.类似的说明,以前的一点,当你接近一个轻,你知道你将不得不等待。 Prematurely switch your gear into neutral and glide to your stop.过早地切换到您的齿轮中立和滑行到停止。 I always find it humorous to see people still accelerating 20 feet before they get to a stoplight.我总是觉得幽默地看到人们仍然加速前20英尺,他们获得了stoplight 。 One route that I travel frequently allows me to hit 60 on an express way.一条路线,我经常旅行让我达到60对表达方式。 I shift to neutral early on and generally get half a mile of glide that consumes no gas.俺转向中性的早期和普遍得到半英里的滑行消耗没有天然气。 Its convenient because the speed limit drops to 30 and ends at a stoplight that is always red.它的方便,因为车速限制下降到30和结束在stoplight这始终是红色的。 Why do I use neutral to glide in?为什么我使用中性滑行吗? When I glide to a stop in the drive gear you can actually feel the down shifting of your car.当我滑行停止在传动齿轮你可以实际感受到了转移你的车。 This slows you down and subtracts the amount of gliding you can do.你这速度,并减去的数额滑翔你能做。 Plus once you get to the stoplight you’re all set in neutral to wait out the light.另外一旦你向你stoplight所有设置在中性等待了光。
- Avoid stopping or parking on an incline.避免停车或停泊的倾斜。 I live in the Chicago area so hills are somewhat rare, however when I visit friends far out from the suburbs this can become a problem.我住在芝加哥地区,使丘陵有些罕见,但是当我访问的朋友远从郊区这可以成为一个问题。 If you park on an incline you’re going to expend many more RPM’s climbing up it from a stopped position.如果您在公园斜坡你会花费更多的转速的上升从一个停止的立场。 Its like pushing a rock up a hill.它像一块石头推了山。 Its easier if you apply constant momentum to an object already in motion.其方便适用,如果你不断的动力的对象已经启动。 If that object stops moving, its going to require twice as much energy to get it started again.如果物体停止移动,其将需要两倍多的能量得到再次开始。 That said, try to park on the declining side of hills.也就是说,试图公园下降的一侧山丘。
- Gear sweet spots - Every gear has a sweet spot.齿轮甜蜜点-每一个齿轮有一个甜蜜点。 I define this by the MPH your are going just after your gear shifts up.这一定义由硕士您会在您刚才齿轮转变了。 For example.例如。 My sweet spot for 3rd gear is about 31MPH and allows my car to do 1500 RPM at the beginning of the 3rd gear.我的甜蜜点的第3次齿轮约31MPH ,让我的车做转速在1500年初的第3次装备。 If the speed limit is 40 MPH I would still be in 3rd gear and have to do 2000 RPM.如果车速限制是40硕士我仍然是第3次的渔具和必须做的2000年转。 This is extra gas consumption in action.这是额外的天然气消费在行动。 So what do you do?因此,你怎么办? Speed up to 43-45 and allow your gear to shift to the 4th gear.加快以43-45和让您的齿轮转向齿轮4 。 Then keep your speed limit at 41ish to utilize your 4th gears sweet spot at 1500 RPM.然后让您的车速限制在41ish地利用您的第四齿轮甜点1500 RPM的。 You are actually getting further and consuming just as much as when you were in the sweet spot for the 3rd gear as in the 4th.您正在得到进一步的实际和消费一样,你在甜蜜点的第3次齿轮在第四位。 This is why city driving is known to suck up all your gas.这就是为什么城市道路驾驶是众所周知的吸吮所有的天然气。
- Drafting - Driving behind trucks makes me nuts, but after seeing a recent episode on Mythbusters they proved a 25% savings in gas when driving 20 feet behind a semi on the highway (and more the closer you get - but don’t push it).起草-驾驶卡车后面让我坚果,但在看到了最近的事件就徒劳无功,他们证明了2 5% ,节省天然气驾车时落后2 0英尺半的公路上(和更接近你-但不推) 。
- Avoid multiple spurts of acceleration.避免多重苗头的加速度。 Keep your foot consistent and make changes smoothly.让您的脚一致,并进行适当修改顺利进行。 Cruise control helps a lot for this even if you’re only going 30 MPH.巡航控制系统有很大帮助这个即使你只是30公里。 Cruise control can also be efficient when accelerating to desired speeds which you can set early on in your route.巡航控制系统也可以有效地加速时所需的速度,您可以设置早在您的路线。 Note: I’m not sure how other cars act, but my cruise control only works after I hit 25 MPH.注:我不知道如何采取行动的其他车,但我只巡航控制系统后,我的作品触及每小时25英里。 If I set the cruise speed high early on in my route, as soon as I hit 25 I could easily kick it in to guide me through gears three through five.如果我设定巡航速度高,在初期我的路线,尽快我击出25个我可以轻松地踢它来指导通过齿轮箱通过三个五年。
- Look ahead - Don’t accelerate if you don’t need to.展望未来-不要加速,如果你不需要。 Look five cars ahead, note if they’re breaking.看看前面五辆车,说明如果他们打破。 If you see tail lights then don’t waste gas accelerating.如果你看到尾灯然后不要浪费天然气加快。 This is common gas eater when the driver you’re behind is either A) Using tactics like this to save gas or B) Tailgating in which case you can never really tell when they’re coming to a stop or trying to back off the car in front of them.这是共同的天然气吃的驱动程序时,你是不是后面a )使用这样的策略以节省天然气或B )跟车太贴在这种情况下,你不能真正告诉他们时,来阻止或试图放弃汽车在他们面前。
These techniques didn’t take me long to get used to at all.这些技术没有考虑我长期习惯于在所有。 Once you have mastered them and the feel of your own car you’ll start to see some extra mileage.一旦你掌握了他们的感觉自己的车您就可以看到一些额外的里程。 I want to remind everyone, while saving money is nice, its better to break the 2000 RPM rule to avoid accidents.我想提醒大家,虽然省钱很不错,它能够更好地打破了2000年RPM的规则,以免发生意外。 These techniques are not meant for entering the highway for example.这些技术并不意味着进入高速公路的例子。
Common Misconceptions: 常见误区:
its easy to assume it will take you longer getting to places when using some of these techniques (especially the slow start ups one).它很容易承担您将不再到达的地方使用时,其中的一些技术(尤其是慢启动企业之一) 。 It might be a curve of my own perspective, but I didn’t seem to get to my destinations any slower then two or three months ago.这可能是一个曲线,我自己的观点,但我似乎并没有得到我的任何目的地然后慢两个或3个月前。 My own reasoning for this may contribute to the fact that most drivers accelerate hard at stoplights and then slow down to the speed limit.我自己的推理这可能有助于事实上,大多数司机在加快硬stoplights ,然后放慢速度的限制。 Shortly after I catch up to them because of that, or more likely due to slower drivers in front of them.不久之后,我赶上他们,因为这一点,或更可能是因为慢司机在他们面前。
Also note: On weeks that I traveled to places I was unfamiliar with, I tended to ignore most of these gas efficiency techniques to pay more attention to signs and turns.另外请注意:在几个星期,我去的地方我很熟悉,我往往忽视大多数这些气体效率的技术,更多地关注和轮流的迹象。 If you frequently drive the same route (to work for example).如果你经常驾驶同一路线(工作,例如) 。 These tips are much easier to implement.这些窍门更容易实施。 I seldom have to get on the highway so a lot of this is a great gas saver for the frequent city and suburb drivers.我很少不得不在公路上做了很多这是一个伟大的天然气程序对于频繁的城市和郊区的驱动程序。 Since I was limited to doing this with my own car I’m curious if any other makes/models can achieve even better mileage and savings.自从我只限于这样做我自己的车我很好奇,如果任何其他使/模型可以实现更好的里程和储蓄。 Test it out for a week or two and let me know in the comments!测试出来的一两个星期,让我知道在评论中! In the meantime avoid these common gas myths . Until cars run electrically or I can afford this baby , I’ll be applying these methods.在此期间避免这些常见的气体的神话。 直到电动汽车运行或我能够负担得起这个孩子 ,我将运用这些方法。
