@suresh

u mentioned that its an MPFI, and that makes all the difference. engine braking does not gulp fuel, rather its fine. But doing that with a carburetor engine, it is costly affair. So u can do it without worrying about fuel consumption if u drive an MPFI, because the engine knows that it is not accelerating, so it will not put any extra fuel to burn while engine braking.

Hi, I have a query for auto-enthusiasts here. I drive a manual transmission car (M800) with MPFI. Iam getting an average of 16 KM/Litre in Bangalore city. Iam in the habit of shifting gear for slowing the vehicle say from 80 to 60 then to 40, using engine as break.
Is this correct way of slowing down? What is the impact on milage? When I shift gear, will the injector suck more fuel? Is so, how much or by what % is the increase in fuel consumption ?
Thanks in advance.

@shantanu
Well, could have happened if fule expanded 1000% in volume overnight
But it does only a few % , enough to save some pennies, but not enough for a nice explosion

Good tips Rohit. On a lighter note, I’ve always wondered what would have happen if I get a full tank at night and then don’t drive and wait till noon? Fuel tank explosions, anyone?
