Can we reduce the fuel consumption of Nissan Vanette

There's not much beyond regular maintenance and a driving style change that can improve your fuel economy.

Have your aircon checked out, too, and leave it at the lowest comfortable setting when you can... our Vanette was a guzzler, too, and I think part of it was due to the fact that the AC was as cold as a freezer.

guys, thanks for the advice. i just had it tuned-up at finally, my vanette can run 8-9km/L...hindi nga lang naka-A/C coz sira. Sa tingin nyo, ilang percent ng total fuel consumption ang consumption ng A/C? Sabi kasi nung iba, basta vanette daw, malakas din lumamon ng gas ang A/C nya

mga plus 5% sa gas consumption. syempre what do u expect lakas ng aIRCON Nyan.

gel, mukhang sumobra yata ang consumption ng A/C ko. I used to run the van 8-9km/L pag city-driving and A/C is off. But ngayong naka-on na ang A/C, naging 5km/L na. I just had its evaporator soldered coz merong tagas and recharged freon, yan na ngayon consumption nya. What could be wrong?

I have a vanette 94. Tumataas pa rin temp nya pag idle, esp. pag on yung A/C. I already have my condenser in front of the radiator transferred, pero wala parin. Any advise?? Pls help!!!

How many fans do you have? Later Vanettes have bigger double fans on the radiator, you could look around and swap in the assembly for yours.

But first, you'll need to flush and clean your cooling system and check your thermostat. Sounds like a stuck thermostat or a slow cooling fan. Had the same symptoms when I had a busted fan.
