Top Seven Tips for Getting More Mileage Out of Your Gas Tank
With the price of gas continually on the rise, many people are looking for ways to help improve the miles per gallon that they are able to get out of a tank of gas. Here are seven of the top tips that you can practice that will help you get more bang out of your buck.
Pay attention to the speed limit- Not only is driving at the speed limit the responsible thing to do, but it will also help you to save money on gas as well. The miles per gallon you are able to get from a tank of gas drastically decreases at speeds over 60 mph. Slow down and do the speed limit, and you'll be able to go further off of a tank of fuel.
Drive less aggressively-Aggressive driving lower the gas mileage your car gets by 33%. Rapid acceleration, speeding, and constant braking all contribute to aggressive driving. There is no reason to stomp on the gas pedal when the light turns green, nor is there any point to racing to a red light and stomping on the brake to stop. Drive sensibly and less aggressively and you will help increase your fuel mileage.
Proper good vehicle maintenance-Keeping your vehicle running at it's best will greatly help to increase the mileage you get from a tank of fuel. Make routine visits to a certified mechanic to have your car tuned up and checked over to ensure that it stays running at it's best, and you'll have to top off the tank a lot less often.
Stop idling away fuel-Contrary to popular belief, your car burns a significant amount of fuel when idling. And as we all know, when our vehicle is sitting, it's not getting any miles per gallon. Leaving your car idling results in nothing but wasted fuel. If you are going to be sitting for more than a minute or two, turn the car off and save your gas.
Monitor your tires-It has been proven that tires that are not properly maintained will reduce the fuel efficiency of your vehicle. Routinely monitor your tires to ensure that they are inflated properly and correctly aligned. This will greatly help to increase the amount of fuel efficiency that your vehicle has.
Loose weight-Your belly isn't the only thing that needs to beat the battle of the bulge. Excessive weight in your car can decrease the amount of miles per gallon you are able to get. Did you know that 100 extra pounds of weight in your vehicle can cause a 2% decrease in your miles per gallon? Keep your vehicle clear of all unnecessary items and you will increase how far you can go on a tank of gas.
Reduce air drag-If you're not going on vacation, there is no reason to cart around that bulky cargo carrier on top of your vehicle. Nor is there any reason to have fancy flags or other items hanging from window or antennas. These items cause air drag, which decreases fuel efficiency.
