Found some gas savings tips that will help your increase mpg.
- Avoid warming up engine for long period of time. 30-45 seconds is plenty of time.
- Don’t start and stop engine needlessly. Idling your engine for one minute consumes the gas amount equivalent to when you start the engine.
- Avoid revving up the engine.
- Eliminate jack-rabbit starts. Accelerate slowing
- Fuel up either in early morning or late evening when it is the coolest, gas is densest during this times. Gas pumps measure volumes of gasoline, not densities of fuel concentration.
- Avoid overfilling the tank. Overfilling results in sloshing over and out of the tank.
- Exceeding 40 mph forces your auto to overcome tremendous wind resistance, speed limit permitting.
- Traveling 55 mph gives you up to 21% better mileage when compared to legal speed limits of 65 mph and 70 mph.
- Traveling at fast rates in low gears can consume up to 45% more fuel than is required.
- Keep windows closed when traveling at highway speeds. Open windows cause air drag, reducing your mileage by 10%.
- Drive steadily - slowing down or speeding up wastes fuel. Try to stay consistent.
- Plan ahead when approaching hills. Accelerate before you reach the hill, not while you’re on it.
- Avoid rough roads whenever possible, because dirt or gravel rob you of up to 30% of your gas mileage.
- Stoplights are usually timed for your motoring advantage. By traveling steadily at the legal speed limit you boost your chances of having the “green light” all the way.
