driver saving fuel by remapping vehicles engine

What is the Best Way to Save Fuel?

With diesel and petrol costs at an all-time high and likely to increase even further, more drivers are searching for ways to maximise their mpg and save fuel. If you want to reduce your fuel usage, our specialist economy engine remapping service may be for you! It will not only make your vehicle more powerful, with sharper throttle and reduced turbo lag, but it will also help you save money on gas.

Our specialist economy engine remapping at ECU-Flash could save you a tidy sum in fuel costs as well as time by not filling up as frequently!

What is Economy Engine Remapping?

Remapping is an efficient and safe method of retuning your vehicle’s engine. When you remap a vehicle, you are essentially replacing the default software on the ECU with new software that is programmed to optimise the vehicle’s overall performance. The ECU is a programme that regulates how your engine works. When your vehicle is remapped, the software is plugged into the serial port, and the engine map is overwritten with a new version to improve the engine’s overall performance.

How can Remapping Save Fuel?

You won’t have to use as much throttle to get up to and maintain a speed with more torque produced at all RPMs if you remap your vehicle. As a result, a vehicle’s engine does not have to work as hard to shift its weight. But it can be lowering the load on the engine. You  can efficiently decrease the amount of fuel necessary to operate it. The outcome of this is that the fuel economy improves. However, if you keep driving with your foot constantly on the braking system, your fuel economy will suffer. This is because you will be utilising all of the vehicle’s newly discovered power and torque. So, the result will be increased  in fuel consumption.

Vehicles like vans, lorries, tractors, and quad bikes, as well as agricultural machinery like mowers, all can be remapped for increased power and performance. We remap a vast selection of vehicles.  For economy and performance to improve driveability and work rate, especially diesel tractors, which benefit hugely from a 20% increase in torque. Fuel saving isn’t the only benefit of ECU remapping, learn more about the aspects of your vehicle you could be improving by reading our previous article. 

About ECU-Flash 

ECU-Flash is here to help your engine save as much fuel as possible. We accomplish this by modifying certain components of the engine control unit (ECU) software.  We help you to optimise the combustion cycle within the engine. For example, we can change the scheduling of the fuel injectors so that they only use the necessary amount of fuel and do not waste any. We can also change the turbo pressure that the engine receives by injecting more air into the cylinder with each stroke.So, letting all of the fuel injected burn more efficiently.

Remap your vehicle’s engine to maximise its potential.  It gives you the best of both worlds in terms of power and fuel economy. Because your engine is more powerful as a result of the remapping. Moreover, it takes less effort to reach certain speeds, resulting in less fuel consumption. Because the fuel injectors are injecting less fuel or injecting it at different times. As result, less fuel is wasted, making the engine much more effective and powerful. No doubt it  increase the overall performance and economy of your vehicle. ECU-Flash will benefit both your wallet and your vehicle. To save fuel call us on 01302 246 368 today. Please visit our contacts page here to find the right service for you.
