36. Make sure your tires have enough air in them. The proper inflation for your car’s
tires can be found in your owner’s manual or on the inside edge of the driver’s side
door. By following these guidelines you’ll make sure your car is running efficiently
and that you’re not wasting extra gas trying to push a car down the road with tires that
don’t have enough air. |
37.
Unload extra weight from your car. The more your car weighs, the more gas it
burns. So be sure to remove empty ski racks and bike racks when they’re not in use,
and don’t drive around with a trunk or backseat full of stuff you don’t need.
38.. Get regular tune-ups. One of the biggest wasters of gas is a car that’s engine is not
running properly. Even small problems can have a big impact on the amount of fuel
used. Your best bet is to get regular maintenance done on your vehicle including oil
and filter changes, tire rotations, spark plug inspections and general engine tune-ups.
Your owner’s manual should have a recommended schedule for taking your car into
the shop. If not, ask your mechanic.
39. Check your car’s gas cap. Leaving a gas cap on your car that is broken or missing
will allow gas to evaporate. It may not seem like much but you would be surprised
how much wasted gas this can result in over time. So next time you’re filling up, take
a minute to make sure your gas cap is in good shape.
40. Don’t leave your car idling. If you live in a climate where it’s cold, chances are you
let your car warm up before getting into it. But if you’re trying to cut back on your
expenses, this is an easy way to really reduce the amount of gas you use. Also, don’t
leave your car idling for more than 60 seconds if possible.
