How To Improve Your Gas Mileage
- Keeping the speed between 50 and 90 km/h when possible lets the engine
run at the optimal rate and decreases the gas mileage.
- Avoid idling, especially if you have a large engine.
- Try not to accelerate and break all the time (even though
it's fun), driving at even speed can increase gas mileage with
as much as 30%.
- Keep your car and especially the engine in good chape and
it will use less fuel
- Obviously fixing any fuel leaks will improve your gas mileage
and prevent the ground from getting polluted.
- Check the tyre pressure regularily. Too low pressure will
decrease your fuel mileage
- If you live in en area with freezing winter weather using
an engine block heater before starting will improve fuel mileage
and decrease strain on the engine.
- Buy a more fuel efficient car, or use a motorcycle if you're
alone. Motorcycles often use only half as much fuel as a car
but that's easy to forget when it's raining.
- Diesel engines use less fuel than the equivalent gas powered engine but
may not be your ideal choice for a variety of other reasons.
- Walk or take the bike, you will get exercise at the same time. Driving
short half kilometer trips uses a lot of fuel and is hard on the engine.
