at different engine rpms you get different peaks extracted speeds to the wheels through the drivetrain so the basic idea is not to push that throttle too hard that it goes guzzling fuel and you getting lower bang for you fuel and buck... i usually do up to 2k rpm and the speed at most i get is around 90kms max with my car it wont go up in a jiffy but slowly after shifting through all the gears it will reach there and i get around 500kms to 550kms per tank of fuel with a/c and without a/c respectively and the tank full is setting me back 85dhs... so different engine run efficiently at different rpms you just have to figure out yours by experimenting or by looking up the specs sheet of that engine...then last but not least there are other factors like weight ,pressure,aerodynamics,age and condition of engine and drivetrain... most of the time you waste fuel at idle and in stop and go traffic as you are at lower gears so for more rpms you get less distance travelled as opposed to in higher gear... P.S do these things while in the second or last track or else you will get in trouble with others who are in hurry....

Engine fan direct viscose clutch is good or bad?
shadow79 replied to desertdude's topic in General Discussions
barry that will happen but not in this hot country...as the temp still raises and still reaches that less then half position... electric fan is a very nice idea all together but in that time frame that just had to remove and fix another clutch this was the best option and till now its all good the car has gone off roading and was on road no complains and no negative feeds so no harm done and its going gr8 too then what is the need of fixing something which ain't broke.... -

Engine fan direct viscose clutch is good or bad?
shadow79 replied to desertdude's topic in General Discussions
just few blades directed will no even kill a horse let alone a few maybe a feet or two might be missing of one horse but other 200 or 250 horses are there to run around...that same happens if you change your tyre sizes and make suspension changes and as the engine and drivetrain ages but at that time i don't remember people moaning about it...trust me i am a mechanic i guarantee my work for next 80 years or until the shroud falls and breaks the fan blades... -

@Gaurav bhai do you know even if that clutch was fine it can never compete with a direct clutch cooling as it is mechanically fixed to rotate at 1 to 1 rotations with the engine at no matter what rpm and temperature...even if the fluid clutch is engaged its in theory that it gives almost 1 to 1 rotations but in reality it seldom does....
