How Many Kilometers Can the Baojun 510 Run When the Fuel Gauge Light Comes On?
1 Answers
When the fuel gauge light of the Baojun 510 comes on, it can generally run for about 70 to 80 kilometers on the highway, and approximately 50 kilometers in urban areas. When the fuel gauge light turns yellow, the remaining fuel in the tank is roughly around 10%. However, it is advisable to avoid waiting until the fuel light comes on to refuel, as this can damage the fuel pump. Methods to save fuel: 1. When stopping for a short time, such as at a brief traffic light, simply pressing the brake pedal is sufficient. However, if the stop lasts longer than 2 minutes, it is recommended to shift into N (Neutral) gear to protect the transmission and prevent the transmission fluid from overheating. If the stop exceeds 5 minutes, it is best to shift into P (Park) gear, which is both environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient. 2. During acceleration from a standstill, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal all the way down. This only increases engine RPM, causing unnecessary engine noise and transmission wear, leading to fuel wastage. The correct approach is to gently press the accelerator pedal and utilize low-speed downshifting to increase torque for acceleration. Gradual and uniform acceleration, followed by further acceleration once speed is built up, provides a smoother driving experience for automatic transmission vehicles. 3. Skillfully utilize coasting. Coasting does not mean shifting into neutral but rather releasing the accelerator pedal to allow the vehicle to glide using its own momentum. 4. Regular maintenance is crucial. Frequently check the various fluids in the engine compartment, especially the automatic transmission fluid unique to automatic vehicles. Dirty transmission fluid increases resistance, thereby increasing fuel consumption.
