GAZ 24 › Logbook › Consumption 6.5l/100km on 24 Volga!

Stalingrad, Russian Federation

Have a nice day, buddies!

I am quite interested in fuel economy issues. And not only due to the fact that I have a rather voracious device :) And this is not only a monetary interest. It's hard to explain, but it turns into a game of chance!

I like to squeeze a lot of mileage out of a car on a minimum of fuel.

My record on the motorway is 6.5 liters per 100 km. Moreover, it is possible to achieve lower consumption; not everything was perfect on this trip :) Measurement conditions - road from Georgievsk to Stalingrad (approximately 680 km). I left with an empty tank, arrived with an almost empty tank, and filled up a total of 48 liters at three gas stations.

Total less than 48 liters per 680 km.

How did I end up with one? low consumption? At 402 carburetor engine, without suffocating the carb.

1 - very smooth ride at low speed. 99% of the time I drove at approximately the same speed - 80 km/h. By increasing the speed at a fairly cruising level, you pay with increased fuel consumption.

At a speed of a hundred I would have a completely second consumption) Cruising speed depends on the car, the more powerful the engine and the better the aerodynamics, the higher the speed. In the Volga, according to my observations, the minimum consumption is at a speed of 70 km/h in 5th gear.

2 - if the terrain allows it, I coast with the engine turned off. Under such conditions, the consumption is zero :) But this technique must be used with extreme caution. Firstly, at the end of the load, it is forbidden to immediately turn off the engine - at the end of the period of operation at high power, the combustion chambers and cylinders are overheated, which will give the coolant a chance to carry away this excess heat from the cylinders. If upon completion

When climbing a hill, immediately turn off the engine, local overheating may occur - I think this will not do anything good for the engine. Secondly, you need to remove the regular steering lock. It is possible to activate it inadvertently by turning off the ignition; at speed this is very unpleasant :) Based on this, if you plan to turn off the engine while driving, it is better to remove the lock.

Well, thirdly, after a long slide down the hill, it is forbidden to immediately give heat to the engine. The oil again flows into the sump, and if you immediately apply a load, the engine may work with oil starvation. Start the engine 10 seconds before connecting the load and raise the speed to a couple of thousand for a few seconds in order to drive the oil through the engine vessels.

Remember that after some time the engine is not running, the vacuum brake booster is switched off! Be much more careful and make sure that without a vacuum booster you are able to stop the car quickly. To do this, you need to put the brakes in order.

And finally, I made a small modernization of the engine :) I removed the cooling fan, which is mounted on the pump and always rotates with the engine. On the highway in cool weather, an additional fan is not needed; the flow is already sufficient. We remove the heavy part that is always spinning, along with the blades clinging to the air space and creating unnecessary resistance.

It is fundamentally important - do not try to remove the fan in the heat, if there are areas on your route with municipal traffic or traffic jams! And constantly watch the temperature sensor) I think I saved several liters per hundred with this modernization :) Returning to the city, first of all, I returned Carlson to his place. And without joking, I thought about installing an electric fan, so that it would turn on only when necessary, and would not always take part of the engine’s energy.

The history of the famous Volga car begins in 1956. For a long time this car was a symbol Soviet era and the dream of millions of citizens. And it so happened that the flagship of the Gorky Automobile Plant was both an incentive to move forward and a burden for the enterprise to reach new heights.

The first car bearing the proud name of the mighty Volga River bore the index GAZ 21. Having rolled off the assembly line, it immediately received the status of a symbol of that time. The car was constantly featured in films, was successfully exported, and received prestigious awards at automobile exhibitions around the world. This model became, without unnecessary exaggeration, the first premium car that an ordinary Soviet citizen could afford. Especially considering the fuel consumption per 100 km, which was significantly lower than competing cars produced at the same time.

By the way, the Volga became the first model that could be equipped automatic transmission, considered an unprecedented “bourgeois gadget.” It was, in truth, an extraordinary and very successful car, which received cult status, and is still often remembered with delight by connoisseurs of the classics. It's a pity that at one point everything didn't go according to plan...

Fuel consumption GAZ-24-10

In the wake of the success of the 24th Volga, it was decided to carry out a deep modernization and launch the new car into large-scale production. The first GAZ 2410 car was released at the end of 1985. This model belonged to the middle class. It is worth noting that from its predecessor the new product received not only moderate fuel consumption, but also high build quality, as well as a reputation for increased reliability. In addition to the standard sedan version, modifications were produced for use in taxi and ambulance services, as well as a station wagon model. In each of the above types of car, the same power unit, the fuel consumption of which is shown in the table.

GAZ-3102

The model, known as GAZ-3102, is also a middle-class car, the production of which started on New Year's Eve 1982. This car was developed on the platform of the most popular 24 model and was supposed to become its successor. But everything did not go so smoothly and for many economic and even political reasons, the Volga 3102 was produced in small quantities, amounting to no more than three thousand copies per calendar year.

The characteristics and gasoline consumption standards of the model made it possible to use it as a means of transportation for mid-level Soviet officials, that is, for those people whose status did not qualify for Chaika limousines. By the way, in model range There were much more 3102 engine options than 24. The Volga’s fuel consumption per 100 km can be found in the table.

Fuel consumption GAZ-3110

Since the late 80s. Representatives of the car plant constantly talked about the imminent appearance of a new model. True, words, for some reason, always diverged from actions.

And so, in 1997, the company decided to restyling model 31029. The new product was released under the symbol 3110.

However, nothing new, with the exception of modified engines 402 and 406, new car I couldn't brag. All other stated options were available on previous model. Only the differences in the exterior were striking. Although the refinement of the steering was beneficial: now the car has become soft and pliable to control.

Fuel consumption GAZ-31105

The appearance of the new GAZ-31105 in the lineup was rather an attempt to change at least something, since the car practically copied the version with the index 3110. The list of improvements includes a pinless front axle suspension and the appearance of a stabilizer lateral stability V rear suspension, as well as a modernized gearbox. To the credit of the plant's design department, the work on the exterior of the Volga 31105 was carried out extensively and painstakingly: in place of the front angular headlights, modern drop-shaped analogues appeared, the radiator grille, front fenders, bumper and hood were replaced.

In the period from 2006 to 2007, the company worked on the production of model 311055, which received an extended wheelbase. However, the business class version was made to order and did not go on mass sale.


Volga Cyber

The company urgently needed to be saved by releasing a new model. For these purposes, it was decided to borrow the licensed front-wheel drive platform of the auto giant Chrysler. So in 2001 the production of the model was launched Volga Siber, the design of which was worked on by the famous British studio UltraMotive. During the design of the Volga Cyber, the goal was to apply the existing developments of American automakers to the maximum. Wherein domestic car should have had classic exterior features familiar to many.


It is worth saying that, like many cars, the fuel consumption of the Volga per hundred kilometers in winter is slightly higher than in summer period, this must be taken into account before making personal measurements.

GAZ fuel consumption rate according to the resolution of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation for passenger cars and commercial vehicles GAS is calculated using the formula:

Qн = 0.01 x Hs x S x (1 + 0.01 x D)

Where Qn- fuel consumption rate for a GAZ car per 100 km, l; Hs- basic fuel consumption per 100 km, (l/100 km); S- car mileage, km; D- correction factor (total relative increase or decrease) to the norm, %.

Fuel consumption for GAZ dump trucks is calculated in accordance with the fuel consumption standard of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation using the formula:

Qн = 0.01 x (Hsan x S + Hw x W) x (1 + 0.01 x D)

Where Qn- fuel consumption rate of a GAZ dump truck, l; S- mileage of the GAZ dump truck, km; Hsan- fuel consumption rate for the mileage of a dump truck in running order without load;


Fuel consumption standards for GAZ dump trucks

GAZ dump trucks since 2008

Fuel consumption for GAZ vans

Fuel consumption of GAZ vans, the standard value of fuel consumption is determined similarly to on-board trucks using the formula:

Qн = 0.01 x (Hsan x S + Hw x W) x (1 + 0.01 x D)

Where Qn- standard fuel consumption of a GAZ van, l; S- van mileage, km; Hsan- fuel consumption rate for the van's mileage in running order without load;

For vans operating without taking into account the weight of the cargo being transported, the normalized value of fuel consumption is determined taking into account an increasing correction factor - up to 10% of the base standard.

How to reduce fuel consumption on a GAZ 24 and received the best answer

Answer from Alexander Shinkar[newbie]
Consumption depends from pinched bearings to engine malfunctions and underinflated tires.
The Volga consumes 12 in the summer, 15 in the winter, and don’t listen to anyone, it can’t be less.

Answer from Yan Galiev[guru]
don't go :) just kidding... You can try another carb, I implanted 2140, the consumption was about 9 liters...


Answer from Alexey Ageev[guru]
don’t start it, but maybe there’s something wrong with the chassis, maybe the bearings are rubbing, maybe brake pads, collapse...


Answer from Glushko Andrey[guru]
change the oil in the box and gearbox - in winter it will slightly reduce consumption, pump the tires back to normal


Answer from Lyudmila Ukrainskaya[newbie]
it can all be a matter of kilometers if you drive them in first gear!


Answer from Garik Dobermanych[guru]
The valves are definitely “not playing” - A large gap is not a shame! =)
Look at the ignition...
Although my neighbor’s Volga car’s consumption is approximately comparable to yours.... well, maybe 1-2 liters here and there...
I don’t believe in the consumption of 9 liters on Volzhan - fairy tales! - or it is clamped so that not only the second, but also the first chamber does not breathe! =)))


Answer from Oriy Bobrov[guru]
Consumption on the Volga very much depends on the ignition setting; on these engines it is better to set the ignition not according to the timing, but according to the appearance of detonation knocks; when accelerating the car into 4 gears from a speed of 40 km, a slight detonation should be heard

Answer from 2 answers[guru]

Hello! Here is a selection of topics with answers to your question: How to reduce fuel consumption on a GAZ 24

The engine of the 24D model has a high compression ratio of 8.2. For its normal operation, it is necessary to use gasoline with octane number at least 85 units (according to the motor method), i.e. AI-93 or “Extra” gasoline. AI-93 gasoline is leaded and colored blue. It should be remembered that leaded gasoline is poisonous and requires special handling rules. Avoid getting leaded gasoline on your hands, clothing, and body upholstery. Particularly dangerous consequences are caused by the ingress of leaded gasoline into the respiratory system or into the oral cavity.

The use of gasoline with a lower octane number (A-76 and especially A-72) is completely unacceptable for the 24D model engine.

The model 2401 engine uses leaded A-76 gasoline, colored green.

Gasoline consumption GAZ-24 Volga

Volga cars have high efficiency, which, however, is achieved only with correct installation ignition, precise carburetor adjustment, use of oils of specified viscosity for the engine and transmission, correct adjustment front wheel hub bearings and maintaining normal tire pressure.

Economy also depends to a very large extent on correct driving techniques. Driving quickly with sudden acceleration and frequent braking increases gas mileage.

Fuel consumption largely depends on the operating conditions of the vehicle and the qualifications of the driver. Fuel consumption is also affected by driving speed, load, road surface condition, terrain, air temperature, driving techniques, etc.

With increasing speed, fuel consumption changes in a certain dependence ( rice. 230 ). As seen in rice. 230 , the minimum consumption is obtained at a speed of 35-45 km/h. If possible, choose the most economical driving speed.

Driving on country roads and cobblestone roads, as well as on city streets with frequent braking and stopping, inevitably increases fuel consumption. Fuel consumption at winter operation increases by 10%. You need to pay particular attention to technical car condition, which has a decisive influence on the efficiency of its operation. To improve efficiency, the following is recommended:

1. Adjust correctly chassis and, first of all, the front wheel bearings.

2. Use lubricants of the required viscosity in accordance with the factory instructions.

3. Maintain tire air pressure according to technical specifications.

4. Correctly adjust the toe-in of the front wheels.

5. Accurately adjust the parking brake drive.

6. Use AI-93 or “extra” gasoline for the 24D engine and A-76 for the 2401 engine. If gasoline with a lower octane number is used, the engine runs with detonation, and when setting a later ignition, gasoline consumption increases.

7. Install the ignition correctly and check its setting while driving. A slight early ignition is recommended so that when you sharply press the throttle pedal at a speed of 30-40 km/h, a light, quickly disappearing detonation can be heard. Driving with constant detonation, including increased load(on slopes, on sand, etc.) is unacceptable.

8. Accurately adjust the carburetor, especially the speed idle move and fuel level in float chamber. The fuel level is adjusted by bending the tongue on the lever to which the float is soldered (see Fig. 51).

9. Use spark plugs specified in the technical specifications, adjust the gap within 0.8-0.9 mm, replace spark plugs with new ones in a timely manner (after a mileage of 20-25 thousand km).

10. Monitor the tightness of the fuel line connections, preventing fuel leakage.

11. Maintain the coolant temperature within 85-90° C. It is recommended to close the blinds at stops and move away without opening them. In winter, additionally cover the radiator trim with a warm cover.

12. Maintain economical driving speeds. Make proper use of the terrain and road conditions.

A fully run-in car with a correctly adjusted chassis should roll freely on a level asphalt road at a speed of 50 km/h until it comes to a complete stop for at least 500 m. Control fuel consumption for a correctly adjusted and run-in car with a mileage of at least 3000 km on a level asphalt road at speed 35-45 km/h should be within 8-8.5 liters per 100 km.

The dependence of gasoline consumption on a flat asphalt road on driving speed is shown in rice. 230 .

The actual gasoline consumption of a GAZ-24 car with a ZMZ-24D engine at speeds of 80-90 km/h is:

On the highway - 11.5 - 13.0 l. per 100 km.

In the city - 13 - 15 l. per 100 km

High dynamic qualities and good stability of the car, combined with a soft elastic suspension, allow you to move at high speed as if good roads with asphalt surfaces, and on roads with significant unevenness. However, it should be borne in mind that although the driver and passengers, when driving on bad roads, weakly feel road irregularities, the resulting load is still fully perceived chassis car, causing accelerated wear of the suspension and body. You should especially avoid driving at high speeds when cornering, as this will lead to rapid tire wear.

Engine efficiency and wear of its parts are also affected by the temperature conditions of the engine. The temperature of the liquid in the cooling system must be maintained within 85-90 ° C, avoiding driving with a cold or insufficiently warmed up engine. The temperature in the cooling system is controlled by a thermostat and the degree of opening of the blinds. In winter, at low ambient temperatures, the blinds must be completely closed and an insulating cover must be placed on the radiator lining.

It is also necessary to take into account that while the engine is warming up, the thermostat in the cooling system is closed, water does not circulate through the radiator and can freeze in it, although it will be warm in the engine jacket. When the coolant temperature rises above the permissible limit, a red warning light on the instrument panel lights up.

In this case, it is necessary to check whether the blinds are open enough. If the lamp still does not go out when the blinds are open, then you need to stop the car and eliminate the reasons that caused the engine to overheat. Overheating may be a consequence of excessive shutoff of the valves of the insulating cover, insufficient amount of fluid in the cooling system, loose fan belts, etc.

The warning light sometimes comes on immediately after stopping the engine while running heavy load, due to the cessation of fluid circulation in the cooling system. In this case, you can continue driving without waiting for the lamp to go out. After starting the engine, circulation in the cooling system is resumed and the lamp goes out.

Driving with an overheated engine is not recommended, since “this sharply reduces the viscosity of the oil in the lubrication system, which leads to a reduction in the service life of the connecting rod bearings of the engine.

Water should be drained from the cooling system through two taps with the radiator cap open. In addition to the cooling system taps on the lower radiator tank and on the cylinder block, the heater tap must be open on the right side of the engine (on the cylinder block in the area between the third and fourth cylinders).

In severe frosts, it is recommended to cover the holes in the radiator shields with cardboard or rags, since the through flow of cold air greatly cools the oil in the steering mechanism and the brake fluid in the brake master cylinder, hydraulic vacuum booster and separator. Increasing the viscosity of oil and brake fluid increases the force on the steering wheel when turning the car and on the brake pedal when braking.

Heating combustible mixture in the intake pipe, especially necessary in winter time, is carried out using exhaust gases that heat the inlet pipe in its central part. A damper is installed in the cavity of the exhaust pipe at the point where it is attached to the inlet pipe, with the help of which the direction of the exhaust gases and the degree of heating are changed. The damper can be set in two main positions: for summer and for winter; It is recommended to change the position of the damper in spring and autumn in accordance with the approaching season.

An oil cooler is installed in the GAZ-24 lubrication system. In summer (at air temperatures above +5 ° C) the radiator must be turned on. In winter (at air temperatures below +5° C), the radiator should be turned off. To turn on the radiator, the handle of the tap located on the left side of the engine must be turned along the pipeline; to turn it off, it must be turned across.

Engine oil cleaning is carried out by one full-flow filter with a replaceable filter element, which must be replaced every time the oil in the engine crankcase is changed. Slight darkening of oil containing additives is not a reason to change the oil or filter element.

Into the crankcase rear axle only need to be filled special oil for hypoid gears passenger cars according to GOST 4003-53. Filling or adding any other oil, including hypoid oil for trucks according to TU TNZ 128-63, renders the main drive gears unusable.

A hydraulic vacuum booster is installed in the car's braking system, which comes into operation when the pedal stroke corresponds to a force on the pedal platform of 3.5-4 kgf. When you press the pedal further, the hydraulic vacuum booster has an auxiliary effect, providing the necessary braking efficiency with a relatively small effort from the driver's foot. Therefore, it is recommended to press the brake pedal smoothly, without much force.

When you press the pedal hard (with a jerk), the pressure in the system quickly increases after the hydraulic vacuum booster comes into effect, causing too harsh braking and even wheel locking. Sharp braking is especially dangerous on slippery roads. It should be borne in mind that in winter, due to the increase in the viscosity of the brake fluid in the system, the hydraulic vacuum booster comes into action with greater pedal force than in summer, and therefore more attention is required when braking.

Separating device included in brake system, provides fairly reliable braking in the event of a part failure brake system(front or rear brakes), but you can continue driving only in exceptional cases and with precautions.

The brake and clutch release system should only be filled with brake fluids(BSK or ASA), made with vegetable oil. The use of fluids containing mineral oil and designed for oil-resistant rubber, for example petroleum hydraulic brake fluid GTN, is strictly prohibited.

Sidelights and tail lights bodies have bodies made of plastic with decorative metallization. Contact with gasoline or solvent is not allowed, as it causes clouding and cracking of the plastic.

Locking the car

To prevent the engine from starting and the car being stolen by unauthorized persons, the ignition key should be turned 90° counterclockwise, which not only turns off the ignition, but also locks the steering wheel. In this case, the front wheels should be set to driving in a straight line. When unlocking the anti-theft device, it is recommended to simultaneously swing the key while turning the key. steering wheel round trip.

When pressed, the buttons on the door panels block the lock drive both from the outside and from the inside. When the button is pressed, the inner handle of the lock is motionless. To avoid contamination of the drive mechanisms of the doors, trunk and gasoline tank hatch, the covers of their switches should always be kept closed. Using the radio in a parking lot with the engine off and the ignition on is not allowed, as this can lead to overheating and damage to the ignition coil. To avoid draining the battery, it is not recommended to use the receiver in a parking lot for more than three hours at a time.

It is strictly forbidden, even for a short time, to connect terminals III of the generator and voltage regulator to ground (for example, to check for a “spark”), since this may damage the voltage regulator.

The car is designed to carry 5-6 people and 50 kg of cargo in the trunk. The sixth seat, with limited amenities, is intended for short trips only.

Carrying cargo in the trunk up to 100 kg is allowed, but only on good roads and when driving at a reduced speed. Overloading a vehicle, especially when operating on poor (dirt, cobblestone and unimproved highway) roads, inevitably leads to a reduction in the service life of the vehicle.

It is recommended to move away only in first gear, and while driving, switch to lower gears in a timely manner, avoiding unnecessary loss of speed. This protects transmission parts and especially the clutch from excessive loads and increased wear. It should also be taken into account that the engine has better traction and throttle response when operating at higher speeds.

Special instructions. Engine exhaust gases contain toxic products of fuel combustion, including carbon monoxide (a colorless and odorless gas), which, if inhaled, causes severe poisoning, and with prolonged exposure can even be fatal. Therefore, you should avoid running the engine for long periods of time in a garage without special exhaust devices. It is also not recommended to turn on the body ventilation when parked while the engine is running.
