How To Improve Your Gas Mileage

With the recent hike on fuel prices and the global economic situation, more and more people are finding ways to save money on their gas expenditures. Improving your gas mileage is one way to save on fuel. Here are some tips on how to improve your gas mileage:

1. Be a responsible driver. Aggressive driving, which pertains to speeding, rapid change in acceleration and sudden braking, wastes a lot of gas. Avoiding aggressive driving will increase your gas mileage and at the same time avoid untoward incidents and accidents on the road.

2. Removing excess load on your car is another way to improve your gas mileage. Avoiding heavy and unnecessary items on your vehicle can reduce your MPG up to 2%.

3. Keeping your car in good shape can help you save big bucks on your fuel consumption. Replacing a clogged air filter can improve your car's gas mileage by as much as 10%.

4. Combining tasks into one trip saves you time and money. Several short trips taken from a cold start can use twice as much fuel as a longer multi-purpose trip covering the same distance when the engine is warm. Planning your trip ensures that traveling is done when the engine is warmed-up and efficient.

5. Drive only within legal speed limits. Your gas mileage decreases significantly if you drive above 60 miles per hour.
