How can I squeeze every mile out of a tank of gas? |

-
Keep your car properly "tuned up".
-
Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.
-
Eliminate any un-necessary items in your car,
the lighter the car the better the mileage!!
- Avoid
excessive idling. Turn off engine when waiting
for friends or family.
- Avoid
"warming up" your car on cold mornings.
Modern cars warm up fast and drive well when
cold.
-
Drive gently. Avoid sudden accelerations and
jerky stop and go driving. Use your cruise control
when driving open highways.
-
Drive the speed limit. Excessive speed uses
excessive fuel
- Do
not use premium fuel unless your engine requires
it. Premium fuel is harder to burn.
- Run
high quality fuel. Low quality fuels contain
high quantities of alcohol and get poor fuel
economy.
-
Keep your wheels properly aligned. Misaligned
wheels will cause your tires to drag. The less
rolling resistance the better
