I drive a 1.2l petrol fiat panda and i have a few questions about the fuel consumption when decelerating.
So when i am driving in 3rd gear at about 3000 rpm and let my foot of the gas, the car starts to brake and the fuel consumption reads 0l/100 km, this is because the fuel cut off is in effect. The thing that bothers me is that as soon as the engine gets to about 1500 rpm the fuel consumption starts to rise and it acts as do the car is in idle, if the rpm fells to about 900 (idle) then the fuel consumption rises even more and the car is trying it's best not to stall.
Shouldn't the fuel consumption read 0l/100km until the engine gets to 900 rpm? Because i don't see the logic in that the engine starts to use fuel at about 1500 rpm.
If anyone has a 1.2 l panda can you please test this scenario for me?
We have a ford focus 1.8 TDCi and when I engine brake, the fuell consumption reads 0 until the engine gets to idle.
