THIS IS WHY YOU EXPERIENCE BAD FUEL ECONOMY ON YOUR CAR!!!  

...and on the spark plugs, make sure you gap the spark plugs correctly( the gap between the center electrode and the ground electrode should have a specific measurement) before installing or even your genuine spark plugs will still contribute to poor fuel economy. There are three main types of spark plugs: - Copper electrode plug ( lasts up to 30,000 km, most commonly used coz it's the cheapest) -Platinum electrode plug ( lasts up to 100,000 km) - Iridium electrode plug ( can last up to 150,000 km) ...... to add to the list too, make sure your catalytic converter is not broken( makelele kama mawe in a debe when you shake your exhaust pipe) and blocking you exhaust, it will ruin your fuel economy, it will also trigger the check engine light. - A bad oxygen sensor is another thing. when the check engine light comes on have it read by computer to see what sensors might be bad in your vehicle. -Incorrect timing of your engine also contributes to bad fuel economy.

Maybe just to add on, carrying unnecessary goods in the car may also lead to poor fuel economy due to the increase in weight. All in all, this has been a very informative video, Erick keep up the great work 👏

I'll do a strong recommendation to my Driving School students. This video is powerful especially coming at this time

This topic is long over due But finally sahii doctors word is here we shall follow it kama vile politicians wanatafuta kura

Kukanyaga brake ovyo eg uko traffic na uko mafuta breki mafuta breki.....................

I will not give up in asking for a review of the Iconic TOYOTA GAIA.With it's impressive looks and excellent reliability

Very interesting videos , thanks wokabi

Non serviced injector pump Non serviced injector nozzles Wheel balancing

thank you , good lessons here. Though AC is not really a luxury in some hot areas eg at the coast.. it's needed..

Bad wheel alignment. The car will not be rolling freely. One wheel trying to oppose the other also causes uneven tyre wear besides bad fuel economy.

And talking of loading: That roof rack is the last place you want to transport anything on. Avoid using it on long trips.

You should have highlighted causes of 'low' fuel economy instead of 'bad' to allow you to mention MOST of the common causes that contribute to high fuel consumption - good or bad. eg. driving in constant start stop situations, idling a lot, tiny engines in heavy cars, the 4 wheel drive system, forced induction, loading to near car's max load capacity plus what you've talked about. Then do a follow up in-depth video explaining how they affect fuel economy.

A bad up stream oxygen sensor will cause high fuel consumption. No catalyst will also do so

Thank you 🙏

Now that you talked about Adulterated fuel, What is your comment on Shell V-Power?

Thanks for this info bro.....Keep up the good work

Hi Wokabi, also the aerodynamics part of it.

I was wrongly advised that my car had slow knock only to realize later it was just a fan belt mulfunction. However, in the process, I was advised to use Motor honey to stop the noise coming from the Engine, however, it was just the noise coming from the cracked belt. Should I flash the engine oil now that I feel the Engine oil is now more thicker than it should?

A very informative piece. Keep it up. 👏👏👏👏

Can a faulty fuel temp sensor cause bad fuel economy

Nice one guys please can you do a video to educate us on carburetors

How do i know the correct spark plug...i would like to know much about it

hii ugonjwa imetulema ..poor fuel economy ama imekua phycological

Million Dollar channel any day!!

Erick where is your garage located in Nairobi?

My car is smoking alot and does not have power. My mech put it in obd ikaleta error ya Oxygen sensor na vehicle speed sensor. The oxygen sensor was cleaned ikakuwa sawa. The vehicle speed sensor error still showing, vehicle still smoking when on idle and engine still feels underpowered. Vehicle: Forester Sg9 2004

Super awesome info. !!!

My mass air flow sesnor failed this week..... the car suddenly became thirsty

I'm learning 👌

Ati mkono sambusa to show of my girl friend??🤣🤣 Mbona unaongea ukweli!??

Overloading the car can cause.....

What about quality of cable plugs? Do they affect high fuel consumption?

Does the worn muffler or exhaust system lead to high fuel consumption?

For newly imported vehicles, how does someone know the mileage clocked on the spark plugs?

Good topic

I know your talking about fuel consumptions BUT prissss - is SBI MOTOR JAPAN legit?
