Don't forget number 8. The cooling system consisting of the thermostat & ECU temp sensor. If the fuel injection computer thinks the engine is still cold it will run a richer air fuel ratio until the engine warms up fully. If thermostat is stuck open then engine will never fully warm up. Check thermostat by running engine from cold & feeling top radiator hose, it should stay cold until thermostat opens & then go to hot to hold. If hose starts getting warm slowly then thermostat is stuck open & needs replacing. Injection temp sensor,(thermistor), needs to be tested for correct reading,(resistance) when engine is warmed up. Also check wiring for sensor by measuring sensor reading from the ECU wiring plug.

Well explained. Great help to car owners.

I am so much interested on this program, I need more lecture on this topic.

I had cars ranging from 1.0 to 1.8 and Im always worried about economy but what I learnt shocked me abit. The 1.8 Civic I had was almost the same as the 1.0 Yaris. You would think smaller engines use less but my guess is that they require more revs to get going whereas bigger engines can achieve the same speed at lower RPM. Ofcourse there is a sweet spot ( probably 1.6/1.8 depending on the engine technology ) but there is not much of a difference like mentioned between big/small engines to a certain extent. Ignore those claimed figures, I have almost 20 years of real world experience on about 10 different cars and learnt these lessons.

You forgot a clogged pcv valve. It doesn't suck in the blowby. Also the incorrect tire psi and carrying too much weight in the car will affect fuel economy

Enjoyed your informative video. It would be also informative and of interest to the public at large to state the "estimated" general percentage increase in fuel consumption expected for each of the numbered reasons. Also, which is the most common mechanical cause of high fuel consumption i.e. driver or road conditions not in the loop. RSVP Cheers.

Check tire pressure absolutely improve mileage up to 10 percent

Dirty intake manifold is a huge cause of high fuel consumption. Clean it as soon as possible.

When my 2002 F150 HD was new it got much better mileage. Why? There was no alcohol in the gas back then. Or only in the Winter. Even with the AC on it still got better mileage in the Summer without the mileage robbing alcohol.

I have jeep gladiators brand new I bought it.its drinks a lot of fuel

They missed ALL items on my own list: 😃 1. Binding brakes. Even the slightest binding will give a noticeable increase in fuel consumption 2. Keep tire pressure at the highest recommended.. 3. Do NOT go to wider tires. And only buy tires with "A" or "B" rolling resistance classification (maybe that marking is only used in Europe? ) 4. Petrol engines (without turbo) use to have a temperature control valve on the intake of the air filter box, where warm air taken from the exhaust system is mixed with cold air to ensure a constant temperature. Nice thought but the thermostat in the mixing valve tends to get stuck at "fully warm" position over time. Engines tend to lose both power and efficiency when running on hot air. Worth checking 🤔 5. Incorrect toe setting increases rolling resistance. A setting as close to "0" as possible usually gives lowest fuel consumption 6. Clean aerodynamics. Remove all unnecessary stuff like roof racks, caravan mirrors, aftermarket spoilers and wind deflectors..

hm. for me its more the way i drive. ranging from 8l/100km to 13l/100km. depending on acceleration.
