Hi Ozhonda'ers, :wave:
Just a very technical question, im not sure if this thread is meant to be posted here or if this question has been asked before but here it goes.
My current occupation is a delivery boy at my aunties restaurant, what i do is i delivery asian food to people that order over the phone to there house or what not.
I've been doing this for a bit more then half a year and a convern thats always been on my mind is my car's frequent engine start and stop.
So i only deliver to places withing a certain range (which isn't very far) and very often i have to turn off and on my engine.
i.e: start engine, arrive at destination and engine goes off, deliver the goods and the engine is on again (approx 1 - 2 minutes engine time off), then back to the restuarant and the car is once off agian for an unknown time (sometimes 1 - 2 minutes again if there is another delivery).
one day could accumilate a bare 3 - 4 deliveries only or up to 20 on busy days.
but the main question is, how does this effect my engine? does it run more expensive (use more fuel to start the engine)? does it cause more carbon to building up?
any help on this concern would be greatful.
THANKSS ! :D
