How should the vehicle's engine be started to promote efficient driving and fuel economy?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is without pressing the accelerator. In modern vehicles with electronic injection, the system automatically regulates the amount of fuel needed for starting. Why shouldn't you press the accelerator? Consumption: Pressing the pedal injects unnecessary fuel that is not burned correctly, increasing consumption and pollution. Mechanics: Excess gasoline can dilute the oil film on the cylinders, causing premature engine wear. Although in diesel engines it is recommended to press the clutch to ease the load on the starter motor, the accelerator must remain untouched.
