1 Answers
BMW 5 Series idling for one hour consumes an average of about 1.6 liters of fuel. The higher the engine displacement, the more fuel is consumed per hour of idling. The relevant introduction to idling is as follows: Definition of idling: When the engine is running without load, it only needs to overcome the frictional resistance of its internal components and does not output power externally. The minimum speed that maintains the stable operation of the engine is called idling, which is one of the five basic working conditions of the engine. When adjusting the idling speed, the speed should not suddenly increase or decrease, otherwise it will cause early wear to the engine. Effects of idling: Fuel consumption will increase. The engine will accumulate carbon deposits. Prolonged idling of the vehicle will cause excessive carbon deposits in the engine, leading to insufficient power when the vehicle is driving. In severe cases, black smoke may appear from the exhaust pipe.
