FC is measured in km/l. If you're just idling in the garage, then that's 0 km/l right there.

pinakamasama dyan pag naka-park ka sa area na stagnant ang air, yung pag bumalik yung usok sa air inlet ng ac, carbon monoxide poisoning. matigas ka na madaling araw pa lang.

mmmmm, bat kaya pag tulog lang sa loob ng kotse may carbon monixide poisoning. Before nakapark kami almost 5 hours walang patayan ng makina and a/c pero gising kami but di naman kami nakaramdam ng kung ano, mas matindi pa nga methane posoning ng kasama ko e. wahehe

Unlike your everday LPG gas tank, carbon monoxide is odorless. you won't know its there, it'll lull you to dreamland before taking your breath away. This practice of long idling is most dangerous in a close garage, whether in your home or as I've noticed in motels. Also in covered parking lot like in malls and office buildings. Remind me of a singer who lost her Dad and, if my memory serves me right, left her brother an invalid due to this practice.

Fuel Dilution of the engine oil is one detrimental effect. This will cause premature wear.

A good run after this excessive idling will evaporate the fuel in the oil.

Wear and Tear ng engine and FC.

well kung may malapit na hotel/motel sa inyo what don't you just stay there for a night?

usually ganito ang ginagawa namin kapag hindi talaga mabata ang kawalan ng lakas ng kuryente.

say gagastos ka ng 400-1k for a night which is I think decent and safer than gas cost
