Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the ability of nickel-plated copper catalytic converters to the fuel consumption of a four-stroke engine. This experimental research uses Yamaha Vixion Lightning as the object of research. Research instruments used include chassis dynamometer, and fuel flow meter. Fuel consumption measurements are carried out based on SNI standard 7554:2010. Results from this study showed that the metallic catalytic converter’s ability to fuel consumption on a four-stroke motorcycle is no better than a standard exhaust. Fuel consumption is 87% more wasteful on MCC technology. This is because the shape of the outlet on the MCC case is steeper, making the back pressure higher and causing an increase in fuel consumption on four-stroke motorcycles.
