He is referring to this:
http://sgforums.com/forums/1962/topics/126888


I have read and understand what the writer going to tell us, he saying in order to have a better FC (fuel comsumption), need to accelerate above 2500rpm.

So more or high FC meaning bad or poor FC, this is the question I posted to clarify with xuan511 here. Pls read again the statement I highlite in red.  :smile:

Ya... mi stalker...  :devil2: You were a panny user right? (If my memory didn't fail me...)  :out:

Better talk something about FC before I'm flagged for  :Offtopic:

Hmmmm... I've been wondering... does a failing battery contribute to increasing FC?  :confused1:

Mi Panny straight to Canny... along the way also became a bessie.... haha...

I just changed mine to MF too... I thought my poor FC was due to the battery... will monitor now that my battery just changed... (but doesn't look to be the issue)...

it cannot be weight issue.  it could be the current required by the sub is high.  so the engine needs to work a bit harder to generate more power for the sub, which causes the high fc.  changing battery may not solve the problem also... can try turn off the sub for one 1 tank to see how.  my 2 cents only.

I don't post much in CS... my nick is jaix_sg or something i think... can't really remember... haven't posted in long time...  :bleh: oh ya, that was the reason why you were so 'eye-catching'... moving from nikky to fuky... i remembered thinking "wah... this guy rich siah"... hahaha  :D But I did missed out your Canny stage...

MF = maintainence free lah. Wah... 150km at 1/4 quarter is very very good! Mi now trying the 2.5rpm method... but seems like it's a little fast for me after being so light footed... now I'm barely 70km at 1/4 tank.  :crying:

what rongshu suggested makes sense to me. maybe TS can try try then let us know?

Something strange... my first quarter I only did about 70km... I guess it's because I was using the >2.5krpm... after the 1st quarter just gave up and drive my normal slow-mo way (<2.0krpm). Just now, I noticed that I hit about 240+ at half tank mark! Maybe the battery does contribute afterall... anyway... I will continue to monitor.

2 lens? Hmmmm... lemme guess... 17-40 L + 70-200 L + 1Ds-Mark III?   :w00t:

Woo... I can't rem for mine. Now I pump before it reaches half.. I pump it when I drove ard... (I cant rem...) Now it seem good for me now because I actually drive a lil faster above 2K and it seem ok.. weird.. mine 4AT, not CVT (so sad!)

canon- 5D with macro lens and 24-70 L. I'm actually aiming 1Ds Mk3 (future usage)

actually, sometimes 2500rpm to drive at 80kmh to 100kmh, max hit 110kmh
due to this cvt latio, pick up is strengthless, so, if wanna to ride faster, got to be heavier footed :( that's why the FC drop :( , cannot tahan the slow at start.... !!!

Fainlly the Latio forum is up!!! I feel so lost...

Anyway, I started slow before I pick up. Somehow, it seem to be better.. But after switching E.O. of w20 and to Shell 95, my FC drop from 14km/l to 13km/l.  :confused1: I should try back Esso 95 or 98 to get better mileage.
