| Abstract |
The Environmental Protection Agency has received numerous requests for idle fuel consumption data. The purpose of this report is to provide data which can be used to calculate the energy impact of various actions taken to reduce vehicle time spent at idle. The conclusions drawn from the test data are necessarily of limited applicability. The data base includes only late model vehicles. A complete evaluation of the energy impact of actions taken to reduce vehicle idle time requires more vehicle models and a larger sample of these test vehicles than is included in the data base. |
