In Jakarta, if we use our vehicles have to be prepared to face such thing as traffic jams on the road, would have a car or two-wheeled vehicles such as motorcycles, we must have the name stuck, because in Jakarta is very crowded vehicle. So get ready to face it alone. For that we must use our intellect. Why do I say so ...? Because we must spend a lot of fuel (gasoline).
Fuel efficient cars are now increasingly popular, especially urban communities that dense traffic, such as Jakarta. Congestion is getting worse make fuel consumption becomes greater. In addition to light in the bag, fuel efficient car that is considered more environmentally friendly because fewer gas dump.
Well besides the size factor of engine capacity, fuel pengiritan also be influenced by how to drive a car. There are several steps that can be applied, for example, first, do not step on the gas pedal stomping. Stamping must be stable and gradual. If you step on the gas pedal abruptly, auto fuel that will be sucked into the engine is also more and more. Meanwhile, at that engine speed is low. Consequently not all the fuel entering the engine room fire. This is called waste. Because, no fuel coming out in the form of energy, but go wasted through the exhaust.
Second, move the gear at low rpm. Especially for the manual transmission car, try to tooth movement, especially movement of the lower teeth (1 to 3) performed below the rpm 3000.
Third, measuring the level of HC and CO. Whether or not wasteful fuel consumption is also determined by engine components. Machine components that have a lot of wear or damage can cause incomplete combustion of fuel. To find out, check the exhaust emissions. If the results showed the value of HC (hydrocarbon) and CO (carbon monoxide) is too high, this is a sign of combustion in the engine is not perfect (lots of wasted fuel).
Fourth, consider the load and drive components. Another factor that determines the fuel consumption is a load and driving (driving vehicles). The heavier the burden that must be transported, their consumption will also increase. The meaning of such drive, clutch, bearings (wheel), coupling (propeller shaft), axles, and wheels. When components are worn or damaged, will cause loss of power generated by the engine to drive a car race. Meanwhile, fuel consumption is still large. Related to the wheels, tires and wheels embedding large, including the factors that affect fuel consumption. (Astraworld.com / MLA / Dly) Source: Liputan6.com
London: Nursing the car one of them is determined by a routine oil change. Drain the old oil and fill with new oil, according to the specified time limit. The process is so simple, so many riders who like the person who tinkers cars sometimes do it yourself at home.

This action is not environmentally friendly.
Oil contains chemicals, including hydro-carbon and sulfur. Because the work lubricate metals, used oil also contain residual fuel, copper, iron, aluminum, magnesium and nickel. If the used oil dumped, then the content-the content contained therein, will be attached to the soil or mixed with water, then be absorbed by plants or animals that eat these plants.
To be sure, this content will make their lives disrupted, including those of us when the chance to consume plants or animals previously consuming these substances.
Burn the used oil was not recommended. Because the burning oil would create more and more pollutants in the air, which indirectly will give adverse effect on our health. Short-term effects are irritation to eyes, skin and even shortness of breath. Long-term effects if exposed continuously can affect brain health, reproductive system to cause cancer.
Instead, tampunglah oil-used oil in an empty container. Then, try to find the information workshops to know the places collect used oil, so we do not throw away the used oil directly. Or, if met with garbage collector, at least tell him to bring the used oil it and mention the danger if carelessly discard. Sometimes the garbage collector even know where the oil-used oil reservoirs. (AstraWorld / MLA / Dly) Source: Liputan6.com

Using a jacket or a helmet that can protect it will also help you avoid problems. To be better, also use a jacket or a helmet that has a sign that can emit light (spotlight), including the motor rear panels. This can help other riders recognize your presence so that accidents can be avoided.

New York: A designer and artist in the U.S., Karolina Sobecka, creating a simple tool to test the levels of carbon emissions or vehicle exhaust.
The system is made of two tools, namely mounted light cloud pictorial cardboard mounted on automobile exhaust, and the iPhone app that is placed on the car dashboard to monitor emissions or automobile exhaust.
The way it works, specially made cartons that will send the signal levels of carbon gases that come out of the tailpipe to the iPhone. The more carbon gases that come out, then the board will change color from green to yellow and red, so the driver or any person near the car can find out how severe the pollution caused.
The green color indicates lower emissions, ie, below 0.2 lb CO2/min. That means the car is burning fuel efficiently.
Yellow color indicates the level of carbon content at the level of being, ie, 1.2 lb or more CO2/min.
If the gas pedal is pressed, the color changes it will become increasingly apparent, whether to stay green or turn into yellow, orange and red.
The concept of a tool called Puff is relatively simple and can be applied by anyone. Cardboard appliance that too could be dismantled easily pairs. (Autoevolution / MLA / Dly) Source: Liputan6.com
