RIDING YOUR TVS STRYKER 3V
CHECKS AND TIPS FOR IMPROVING FUEL
ECONOMY
Regular checks
Carry out the periodic maintenance checks as
specified in this manual (refer page no. 37 to 38).
Regular maintenance checks will save fuel ensuring
trouble-free, enjoyable and safe riding besides
keeping the environment clean .
Spark plug
A dirty or defective spark plug leads to wastage of fuel
due to incomplete combustion. Inspect and clean the
spark plug if necessary.
Replace the spark plug
every 12000 kms. Always use recommended spark
plug only.
Air cleaner element
A dirty air cleaner element restricts airflow and
increases fuel consumption.
Replace the element
every 12000 kms.
Paper and foam type air cleaner element is used in
your motorcycle. In case of any abnormalities (heavy
dust clogging, damage), replace the filters earlier than
the specified interval. Ensure to replace the filters as
set.
Clutch
Increase in engine rpm during acceleration, without
increase in road speed indicates clutch slip. A slipping
clutch will cause high fuel consumption and
overheating of engine.
If the condition persists even after adjusting the clutch
lever play, immediately have the clutch checked by
TVS Motor Company Authorised Distributor or Dealer
/ Authorised Service Center.
Engine cum transmission oil
Dirty or less engine cum transmission oil increases
the friction between various parts of the engine and
reduces the engine life, thereby increases fuel
consumption.
Regularly inspect the engine cum transmission oil for
correct level and top-up if necessary. Get it replaced at
regular intervals as per the maintenance schedule.
Always use TVS TRU4 FULLY SYNTHETIC ( SAE
10W30 API SL JASO MA2 or TVS TRU4 PREMIUM
(SAE 10W30 API SL JASO MA2) oil only
Never drive the vehicle with the clutch lever pressed.
This will reduce the life of clutch and affect the vehicle
performance and fuel economy.
