All of us, regardless of how much money we have, we are always trying to spend on fuel. Therefore, when buying a car we often opt for more economical vehicles, diesel engines, etc. …
There are various small techniques to use, that can reduce fuel costs and you can learn them. You will see how nice it is when you manage to save a few dollars in your pocket.
Before you turn on your car check the tire pressure. Under-inflated tires have more rolling resistance, which means that it takes more fuel to move the car. You need to know that they gradually lose air due to external influences such as temperature for example, and it would be good to get gauges for tire air pressure and check them monthly. Another tip! Make sure to check them while the vehicle’s cold, because you will get a realistic result.
After that, check the air filter. Don’t forget that it’s also very important for safety and in this way you will save fuel, and in addition you’ll avoid some other troubles that dirty filters can cause. What’s most important the filter takes only a few minutes of your time to check. Check them in the daylight and see the degree of soiling. If the light does pass through them, it is certainly time to change them.

When you check the tires and filters you can go. Next you need to pay attention to the speed at which you drive. If you’re someone who loves driving fast you will definitely feel it on your wallet. Slow down! In addition to safety, you will save appreciable amounts of fuel, because the more you accelerate the car, the fuel will increasingly disappear. Remember that you won’t lose much more time going slower.
If you are still addicted to speeding, then I advise you to at least speed with caution. Quick starts waste fuel, so it would be better to do so lightly. Manual transmissions consume significantly less fuel than an automatic, but only if you use it sensibly and in moderation. If not, an automatic will be more economical for you.
In addition to the rapid acceleration and deceleration that occurs your car will rapidly waste your fuel.
If driving in city traffic to maintain your speed as much as possible at a constant slow pace. Do not brake or accelerate suddenly. There is no need, because you will not get anywhere faster, and you’ll be at a loss.
In the end I have another tip for you. Once, when there was no air conditioning we all managed to live without it. Not today, and even when we don’t need them we have them turned on. Despite the fact that we’re breathing in artificial air, we sometimes forget that a breeze can feel good, and your car consumes far more fuel especially at higher speeds. Return to natural air, and I believe that you will feel better and your fuel tank will be satisfied.
