What happens if the retarder is always on?

[LillianMarie]

Keeping the retarder on continuously is equivalent to imposing an additional load on the engine. Here are some relevant details about the engine: 1. Engine displacement: Engine displacement is one of the most important structural parameters of an engine. By understanding the engine's displacement, you can gauge the vehicle's power performance. Generally, the larger the engine displacement, the greater the power output and the higher the fuel consumption. 2. Engine speed: Different engines have varying maximum power RPMs. Typically, gasoline engines reach their maximum power at 5000-8000r/min, while diesel engines operate at lower speeds, around 3000-5000r/min.
