Car questions?

Oomp Loompas are found in Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. I think you find them in England.

Yes air conditioning uses more gas- especially while the car is at idle. Higher gears are always more gas efficient because they lower the rpms.

Legend has it that Oopma Loompas came from a remote island. Rumor has it that they are in a labor dispute with Wonka and can be found picketing the factory.

I’ve heard that driving at low rpm at the same speed is better. My old roommate use to do this all the time. He said it saved gas.

Starting your car uses very little gas. If you’re planning on sitting there for a while, (over a minute) it is recommended that you turn off and then restart your car. It wastes more gas to run than to start.

It is better to drive in the middle of the proper gear. Driving to high or low in a gear could ruin the engine.

The Mythbusters actually proved that it is better and more fuel-efficient to use the AC, than to ride with the windows down. Aero-dynamics, my friend.

You can find Oompa Loompas in Oompa Loompa Land, as stated in the second Willy Wonka movie, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Oompa Loompa – You can find them in their native home of Loompaland, which is a region of Loompa, a small isolated island situated in the Pacific Ocean.

Well hold on now guys, he didn’t say what type of car it was.

If it’s a fuel injected car, then starting it up won’t use much gas.
If it is not fuel injected but by carburetors, then yes it will use much more gas, so keeping it idling is better if you’re gone for less than 5 minutes

Think logical about your second question, is 6000 rotations a minute expel more energy than 2000 rotations?.... seriously?

To get the best mileage, if you’re on the highway, put your windows up and run the A/C on low unless it’s a cool day and you have a sunroof, then just open that up.
If you’re not on a highway and at slower speeds, keeping your windows down is far better.

It doesn’t matter if you run the A/C on low or high. The A/C is based of of compressed gas, therefore the gas is always being compressed no matter what the little knob inside the car says.
