Is there a relationship between the thermostat and fuel consumption?

[LondynFitz]

The thermostat is related to fuel consumption. The relationship between the thermostat and fuel consumption: The thermostat controls the temperature of the engine, and the engine temperature directly affects the power output of the engine. The relationship between temperature and engine performance is like a U-curve—when the engine temperature is either too high or too low, wear increases, and higher wear leads to increased fuel consumption. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: The longer the idling time when parked, the greater the fuel consumption, so try to minimize idling time. Additionally, avoid rapid acceleration, slamming the throttle, and driving at low RPMs. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Various driving conditions such as acceleration, deceleration, braking, and engine idling, as well as load capacity, ambient temperature, and whether the air conditioning is on, can all impact a car's fuel consumption.
