"Diesel shortage" is one of the hot topics discussed by various circles in the society. It once again has a genuine and dramatic impact on the commercial vehicle industry. The vast majority of truck driver users once again faced the problem of fuel consumption, they once again focused their attention on the fuel consumption problem of the entire vehicle. They hoped that their vehicles would be better able to save a little more in terms of fuel consumption, which would not only ease the “diesel shortage” The urgent need can guarantee the revenue in the increasingly costly circumstances of the logistics industry.

In fact, the factors influencing the fuel consumption of the entire vehicle are complex and it is not objective to simply conclude from a key component. Recently, an experimental fuel consumption test conducted by the Futian Auman Technology Center Experimental Unit and the Xi'an Cummins Application Technology Team in Yulin District once again showed that driving the Xi'an Cummins ISM engine, poor driving habits will lead to a 12%-15% increase in vehicle fuel consumption. This data can not help people at first sounded shocked, in the end what is the bad driving habits affecting the practical benefits of the majority of driver users, let us one by one to uncover the answer.

Test time : September 28, 2010 - October 19, 2010, which lasted 21 days

Test route : Five Futian Auman prototypes (including three Auman CTX prototypes, ISM345 engine, and two Auman ETX prototypes), starting from Yulin full load, unloading at Wuhai, Inner Mongolia, and moving to Ordos, Inner Mongolia Loading, passing through Erdos Jingbian County of Yulin, Shanxi Luliang Zhongyang County, and finally to Shanxi Jinzhong to unload. After the completion of the empty car back to Yulin. The whole 2904 kilometers.

Testers : Futian Auman Technology Center's experimental team and Xi'an Cummins's application technology team jointly led the teams.

Test requirements: In addition to the engine, the five prototypes have the same configuration, load, route, refueling method, and location. The driver chooses the driver and the most habitual person to test.

Test results: The improved driving habits reduced the fuel consumption of the entire vehicle by 8%. During the journey from Yulin to the 206km section of Wuhai, Inner Mongolia, the driver’s fuel cost savings after driving habits were improved by nearly 100 yuan. Not only that, the test sample's dynamic performance in climbing and overtaking conditions has improved significantly, and even when climbing a hill, it can even run one step lower than the original air filter.

Xi'an Cummins advocates good driving habits and maintenance habits will greatly improve the economics of the vehicle and reduce fuel consumption.

1. 1100-1500 rpm is the economic zone of the Cummins ISM III engine. Please try to keep it in the economic zone. Excessive reliance on previous driving experience suggests that the economic revs of all branded engines are insignificant, which in turn will be negligible. In reality, this results in huge differences in fuel consumption.

Second, the same speed, high-end low-speed fuel-efficient, low-speed high-speed fuel costs. Please shift gears in time to increase high-end usage. The experience of using other branded engines in the past may make you think that “the power is felt when you are in a big throttle, or else you always feel a lack of strength.” In fact, it is a very wrong driving habit to put this on the Cummins ISM engine. Low-speed high-torque is the distinctive feature of the Xikang ISM engine. 1200 rpm is the engine's torque point, which is the peak point of the “big head”. There is no need to worry about the dragging problem when climbing at this speed. Increasing high-end usage will greatly reduce fuel consumption, and Xikang Engine is the leader in noise technology. Drivers should not rely on previous experience to believe that trucks must make pronounced squeaks when climbing a hill to represent strong power. They use the Cummins ISM engine. You will enjoy the same ease of driving in a low-noise environment.

Third, the engine normal temperature range of driving 83-97 °C, the higher the water temperature in this range, the more fuel-efficient. After the silicone oil clutch fan is directly connected, the fuel consumption will increase. Please repair it in time. Within the range of normal water temperature, the higher the water temperature, the higher the thermal efficiency of the engine, which in turn translates the fuel energy into the drive power capability of the vehicle, thereby reducing fuel consumption.

Fourth, try to keep driving at a constant speed to avoid sudden acceleration and sudden deceleration.

5. If it takes a long time to stop, it is recommended to turn off the engine to save fuel.

6. Reasonable use of air-conditioning, general truck air-conditioning fuel consumption is 2-2.5 liters / hour.

7, to avoid the original large throttle warmer, warming time should not be too long.

After 21 days of personal follow-up, the joint technical team of Futian Auman and Xi'an Cummins observed all the way. Eventually they convinced the driver to follow the recommendations made by them. As a result, the fuel consumption was significantly improved and the transportation cost was greatly reduced. There are figures to explain. In the end, after a trial of a few months, these drivers all said, “The driving habits are really important. After driving cars for so many years, there is no problem with driving habits. In fact, bad habits have always been present. The fuel-saving effect has changed dramatically."

Here, Xi'an Cummins also recommends that drivers in order to reduce the failure rate and improve the vehicle attendance rate, please conduct maintenance in a timely and standardized manner.

First, use high-quality engine oil and observe maintenance specifications. Must use CH-4/SJ and above grade oil, strictly implement the Cummins maintenance code and replace the oil and oil filter on time.

Second, timely maintenance or replacement of air filter. Dirty filter elements cause increased intake resistance and increase fuel consumption.

Third, try to refuel at a regular gas station to ensure the quality and quality of fuel. Press the fault light to indicate or release the moisture separated from the primary fuel filter and the fuel filter in time.

Fourth, to ensure that the tire pressure is normal, timely enough for the tire. Should use the same manufacturer, uniform specifications tires.

Fifth, regular inspection of the tire's wear, severe wear will appear after the slip phenomenon, increase fuel consumption.

Sixth, please maintain the engine according to the standard, and repair the problem promptly.

I believe that if you choose the Cummins ISM engine, which has always been a technology leader in the industry, and practically apply the above good driving and maintenance habits to reality, your fuel consumption will definitely improve and your operating income will increase significantly.
