Tips for Increasing the Gas Mileage of your Car
Some of these tips have been taken from an article on Wyane Gerdes (the guy who can get 59MPG from an old accord) and summarized at moneyhacks. I am copying these tips here for my record or for anyone else interested. Also i have added a few more tips from ehow.com
1) Do not speed.
2) Use your breaks judiciously. Don't brake too much.
3) Inflate your tires to maximum pressure. If the tire pressures are low, the car will consume more gas.
4) Keep the vehicle as empty as possible. Added weight reduces fuel economy.
5) In parking lots, do not use reverse. Pull into a spot so that you’re facing out.
6) Accelerate slowly from a stop. Slower acceleration requires less gasoline than quick acceleration from a stop.
Checking Tire pressure
1) Know the correct tire pressure of your vehicle.
2) Check tire pressure when tires are cold.
I hope these tips will help you to improve your gas mileage.
