Cutting Down Your Gas Consumption

Posted on March 31st, 2010 by admin

With pump costs at an all time high, you might find that after depreciation, gas costs are your biggest motoring expense. Regrettably, how many miles to the gallon your vehicle can achieve is unlikely to be as high as that quoted by the car manufacturer; when driving in real-life conditions, you can generally expect 10% to 15% less distance than the numbers quoted.

On the other hand, if you follow these guidelines, you should be able to reduce your car’s fuel consumption, cut costs and do your bit to help the environment.

* Always ensure that your tyres are at the proper pressure; driving with under-inflated tyres can add as much as 2% on your gasoline costs.

* Observe the speed limit and drive as smoothly as you can, staying away from heavy braking and sudden acceleration. Not only will this decrease wear and tear on your vehicle, but it could help you save up to 30% on your fuel expenses.
