Tips on saving fuel and money
The real challenge in saving gas is how to make the car in your garage go further on every single liter. It is a rule of thumb that provided that your car has a manual gearbox, you can improve fuel efficiency by as much as 25% simply by changing your driving style.
Here’s what you should do:
Try to change the gears (up) without the engine going to high RPM - certainly not over 2.5k RPM (2500 rounds per minute). A lot of people extend first, second and sometimes even third gear more than that because they want to increase speed. You have to consider that this may get you faster, but with a price to be paid - paid with a currency called petrol. So as long as you change the gears early you’re pretty much maximizing the fuel efficiency of your motorcar. Also, you should stay away from traffic and don’t crawl too much. In other words, driving in the city is wasteful where fuel is concerned. Following these tips will surely maximize the cars of your Autopartswarehouse readers.
