2013 New Ford Mondeo
Top Cars | 2013 New Ford Mondeo | 2013 New Ford Mondeo will also elevate its powertrain from the concept. The range-extending two.0-litre petrol motor and electrical motors will not be provided from launch, but will comply with. This may permit for an electric-only range of about fifty miles and about five hundred miles in between fill-ups.
More standard engines is likely to make up the rest with the range, such as Ford’s one.six ?and two.0-litre EcoBoost petrol turbos. Within the current automobile, the latter produces 200bhp and returns 36mpg economic system, whilst the one.six - as identified inside the C-MAX - will offer 150bhp and 180bhp outputs. Also obtainable will be a range of diesel designs, which includes a 112bhp one.6-litre TDCi along with a 2.0 TDCi with 137bhp or 163bhp.

2012 Chevy Cruze ECO
Top Cars | 2012 Chevy Cruze ECO | While we like the idea of the 42-mpg Eco and we love its fuel economy, were pretty sure its biggest competition lies with the rest of the Cruze lineup. There is a growing range of fuel efficient, 40-mpg cars selling at the same price-point, from the Honda Insight hybrid to the aforementioned Focus and Elantra. While the Eco compares well with all of them heck, it does boast the highest highway mileage number of any vehicle powered exclusively by a conventional internal combustion engine the mileage improvements to the other Cruze trims make the Eco less compelling on its own.
The automatic Cruze LT and LTZ models for 2012 saw a bump in fuel economy, and now come close to the automatic Eco at 26/38, giving up just a single mile per gallon on the highway. Also worth noting is that LT Cruzes are now being offered with a standard manual transmission (meaning the automatic is now $995 extra). This is the very same gearbox as in the base model, without the overdrive gearing of the Eco. In this application it gives the Cruze a fuel economy rating of 26/38 equivalent to the automatic and, again, only a mile per gallon behind the Eco automatic.

The F-Series and Ram gains werent unusual in the truck segment. Sales of the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado increased dramatically, as well. As a result, pickup trucks generated 18.6% of the Canadian auto industrys new vehicle sales in November 2014, up from 16.7% at this time a year ago and 17.2% in October of this year.
Meanwhile, according to Automotive News, passenger car volume slid 3% thanks in part to the best-selling cars massive November decline. The Honda Civic was down 27%, a loss of 1528 units. Total car volume was down by around 1900 units.

Petrol Gas Switch For A Pajero
My current vehicle, a Pajero, was modified for dual fuel - ie, petrol and gas. However, its necessary to run the vehicle on petrol at regular intervals to stop the injectors from clogging up. This simple circuit allows the vehicle to be started using petrol and then automatically switches it to gas when the speed exceeds 45km/h and the brake pedal is pressed. Alternatively, the vehicle may be run on petrol simply by switching the existing petrol/gas switch to petrol. You can also start the vehicle on gas by pressing the brake pedal while starting the vehicle. The circuit is based on an LM324 dual op amp, with both op amps wired as comparators. It works like this: IC1a buffers the signal from the vehicles speed sensor and drives an output filter network (D1, a 560kO resistor and a 10µF capacitor) to produce a DC voltage thats proportional to the vehicles speed.
Circuit diagram:
This voltage is then applied to pin 5 of IC1b and compared with the voltage set by trimpot VR1. When pin 7 of IC1b goes high, transistor Q1 turns on. This also turns on transistor Q2 when the brake pedal is pressed (pressing the brake pedal applies +12V from the brake light circuit to Q2s emitter). And when Q2 turns on, relay 1 turns on and its contacts switch to the gas position. Trimpot VR1 must be adjusted so that IC1bs pin 7 output switches high when the desired trigger speed is reached (ie, 45km/h). In effect, the speed signal is ANDed with the brake light signal to turn on the relay. The vehicle has been running this circuit for several years now and is still running well, with no further injector cleans required.
