hi guys, i just taken over a opc rio 0'6 manual..i realised that at cruising speed of say 100km the rpm is about 3,000..is it normal? Just felt curious about it as i seldom see car cruising at 100km having 3,000 rpm unless is high compression or close ratio gearbox performance car..as from wat i noe if having such high rpm during cruising would result in bad fc..

mine oso ard there,so it should b normal.i think its due to the gear ratio,i think so if i didnt remember wrongly

ok thanks bro..perhaps the gear ratio is designed to provide better performances at the sake of sacrificing some fc..thanks anyway bro! i thot my engine was having some kinda problem sia..luckily not!

V2 is diff set of engine from Rio...so i guess it has a lower rpm at 100km/h than Rio.. tink so..

did u change your crank pulley to LIGHT WT CRANK PULLEY? heard it needed more 'effort' on the rpm to travel at 100km/h....

Post by taiyang on Nov 4, 2008 23:07:49 GMT 8
nope......
i didn't change to that.i heard it suffers at higher speed..
only got VSDII, and the spark plug that i gotten from you....maybe because aircon was very cold?

nope...... i didn't change to that.i heard it suffers at higher speed.. only got VSDII, and the spark plug that i gotten from you....maybe because aircon was very cold? Bro, dun worry.... Mine the same as urs, VSD II only but no spark plug...... But my RPM is not reli consistent.... I realise that weight of the car also affects ( if ur driving alone or with passengers). So it depends lah...... Mine is abt 2800-3100 RPM @ 100km/h (manual/HB), using esso synthetic oil & 95 octane. But my FC is still ok, average 12.5km/l.....

Maybe because i now have a baby stroller and huge tank of stuff in my boot.....
I am using fully synthetic 5w50 and shell 95 octane........
i have no problems with FC too....

Post by Adam88 on Nov 13, 2008 3:29:22 GMT 8
maybe its due to weight lah............ then shudn't be a prob if yr RPM stays that way............
