Optimal rpm-speed
Hey all. Cruising down the highway I have been wondering what the absolute most efficient rpm for a nonturbo automatic trans speed would be?
Currently at 3000rpm it goes about 76-78mph.
I’ve looked for charts but can’t find any.
Does anyone know the best, for the engine and fuel efficiency, rpm for this old I5?
I know rpm will vary on hills but wondering about flat highway cruising.
Thanks all
